PHOTOVOLTAICS – ENERGY WORKING IN TENANTS' FAVOR
Photovoltaics – the technology that converts solar energy into electricity – is becoming not just a cost-effective but also a strategic solution for logistics warehouse tenants. It's an ideal option for those looking to boost operational efficiency while minimizing their environmental impact.
Discover the benefits of partnering with us and implementing photovoltaic systems.
Sustainability and brand image
Using renewable energy supports pro-environmental initiatives, aligning with many companies' strategic goals. Customers are increasingly paying attention to whether businesses implement green, environmentally-friendly solutions – and sometimes they require it. PV technology can therefore influence how the company is perceived by business and financial partners, and even improve its image.
Energy cost stability
Generating your own energy from photovoltaic panels means predictable costs in this area, ensuring greater financial stability.
Protection against price fluctuations
Having photovoltaics can protect against energy price volatility. This is particularly important for industries with thin margins.
Reduced dependence on energy suppliers
Having your own energy source diversifies its origin and reduces dependence on external suppliers.
Long-term benefits
Photovoltaic technology is advancing, and panels have a long lifespan (typically 25-30 years), which means long-term financial benefits. The longer the tenant stays in the building, the greater the benefits they can derive from it.
Zero Initial Capital Investment
The tenant pays only a lease fee for renting the PV installation.
Energy cost savings
Installing photovoltaic panels allows for significant reductions in electricity bills. Through in-house energy production, your company can reduce its electricity expenses.
Accolade manages the PV installation
We're responsible for proper operation, maintenance, repairs, and inspections. The tenant bears no responsibility in this regard.
The measurable benefits of using photovoltaics are confirmed by our partnership with ALDI Polska, our tenant at Bydgoszcz IV Park, located in Lisi Ogon.
"Thanks to the 500 kWp photovoltaic installation, we're able to cover nearly 10% of our total electricity demand. These are measurable savings in operational costs and an effective way to reduce demand for energy from conventional sources, which positively impacts the environment." - Paweł Owczarek, Technical and Project Team Manager at ALDI Poland
Where to start?
Best to start by contacting us! You can count on us for:
Electricity consumption analysis – not just from invoices, but also meter readings.
Analysis and proposal preparation – based on collected data, we'll present a customized PV installation lease offer.
In-depth analysis and simulations – at the tenant's request, we'll prepare detailed consumption analyses and PV installation performance studies, considering radiation levels at the given location.
Energy storage – we can expand the offer to include energy storage. This is a particularly beneficial solution for manufacturing tenants, as it can serve as a backup energy source and replace widely used combustion generators.
Zero capex formula – PV is offered as asset leasing under a zero capex model. The tenant only has opex obligations – off-balance-sheet commitments.
Security after contract completion – after the lease agreement ends, the tenant returns the PV installation and bears no disposal costs.
Full management – Accolade is responsible for managing and administrating the photovoltaic power plant, including repairs and maintenance.
