Staycold Export, a global leader in commercial refrigeration based in Hawarden, has taken another significant step towards its sustainability goals with the installation of five Ratio i07 EV chargers at its headquarters. This new addition builds on the success of a previous solar PV installation delivered by Genfit, which continues to generate clean energy on site and reduce the company’s reliance on grid electricity.

The introduction of EV charging infrastructure reflects Staycold Export’s forward-thinking approach to energy and environmental responsibility. With more staff and visitors switching to electric vehicles, the chargers offer convenience and support the transition to low-emission transport. Combined with the ongoing benefits of their solar PV system, these initiatives are helping to cut operational carbon emissions, lower energy costs, and reinforce Staycold’s commitment to sustainable practices.

Genfit worked closely with the team at Staycold to ensure a smooth installation process with minimal disruption. The result is a smart, integrated energy setup that positions the company as a leader in sustainable manufacturing – not just in Wales, but across the export market.

Ratio EV Chargers

The Ratio EV Charger is designed with ease and reliability in mind. Once installed, simply plug in your vehicle and charging will begin automatically. It features a user-friendly interface with LED indicators to show charging status at a glance. Whether you’re topping up overnight or getting a full charge during the day, Ratio ensures consistent, safe power delivery. Compatible with all Type 2 electric vehicles, it’s ideal for both home and commercial use. Plus, with built-in safety features like overload protection and fault detection, you can charge with complete peace of mind.

As part of their commitment to reducing carbon emissions and improving energy efficiency across their property portfolio, TMT appointed Genfit to deliver a turnkey solar PV solution on one of their commercial buildings in Altrincham, Greater Manchester. The project involved the installation of a 26.75 kWp rooftop system, consisting of 50 high-performance LONGi solar panels combined with SolarEdge inverter technology. The system is expected to generate approximately 22.89 MWh of clean electricity annually, resulting in a carbon saving of 4.43 tonnes per year—the equivalent of planting 203 trees.

This investment demonstrates TMT’s proactive approach to sustainability, not only as a means of reducing environmental impact, but also as a strategic decision to mitigate rising energy costs and enhance long-term operational resilience. The adoption of SolarEdge technology ensures maximum system efficiency through panel-level optimisation and real-time performance monitoring, offering greater control and visibility over energy generation.

Genfit provided full end-to-end delivery—from system design and technical specification through to installation and commissioning—with minimal disruption to the site. This project highlights the value of integrating renewable energy into commercial buildings and showcases how organisations like TMT are leading the way in responsible energy management and climate-conscious investment.

Genfit recently completed a 70kWp solar PV installation at Pioneer House, delivering a high-performance renewable energy system tailored to the building’s energy demands. This project features cutting-edge SolarEdge inverter technology combined with efficient and reliable DMEGC solar panels, ensuring maximum energy yield and long-term value.

The system is expected to generate substantial environmental and financial benefits, with projected lifetime savings of £414,723. This installation forms part of Pioneer House’s broader commitment to sustainability, reducing operational costs while significantly lowering carbon emissions.

The system is projected to generate 60.29 MWh of clean solar energy each year, significantly offsetting the site’s reliance on grid electricity. This annual output will lead to a carbon footprint reduction of 11.66 tonnes, the equivalent of planting 535 trees every year. It’s a tangible step towards a more sustainable future for Pioneer House, demonstrating how smart energy solutions can deliver both environmental and economic returns.
