Napa Custom Wine Maker Switches to Renewable Power
The solar PV system consists of 418 high-efficiency 425-watt solar modules which will provide 267,992 kWh of clean, renewable power annually. The Wine Foundry’s facility is now powered by the sun, supporting the sustainable production of their wine brands, Foundry and Anarchist Wine Co.
Utilizing renewable energy is only one piece of the Wine Foundry’s commitment to a sustainable business model. Walking the walk, they are active members of One Percent for the Plant, a global movement inspiring businesses and individuals to support environmental solutions through annual memberships and everyday actions. The funds help direct hundreds of millions of dollars to environmental nonprofits around the world to protect the future of our planet.
The solar photovoltaic system will offset 190 metric tons of carbon dioxide annually that would otherwise be emitted by fossil-fuel based utility power. This impact is equivalent to removing air pollution produced by over 477,310 miles of driving every year or the pollutants removed by 233 acres of trees.
