Challenge

Stonecreek Meats operates a high-demand meat processing facility where stable electricity supply is critical to daily production, refrigeration, and operational continuity. Any interruption in power supply can result in significant operational losses, while rising electricity costs continue to place pressure on production margins.

Solution

HolmStone implemented a Phase 1 solar PV system integrated with the facility’s existing generator infrastructure to create a stable and reliable energy supply solution.

The system was designed to support daytime operational demand while maintaining generator backup capability to protect critical processing operations during grid interruptions.

Result

By combining on-site solar generation with backup power integration, the facility reduced exposure to rising electricity costs while strengthening operational resilience across the plant. The project forms part of a broader long-term energy strategy focused on reliable production support, energy stability, and ongoing operational optimisation.
