Food industry
The agri-food sector is a major contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, due to its farming, livestock breeding, food processing, transport and distribution activities. GreenYellow supports these companies by intervening across the entire energy value chain, offer a global approach. We analyze, design, finance, deploy and manage energy installations, while guaranteeing the savings achieved.
Our mission is to support agri-food manufacturers in their energy transition, taking into account the multiple and crucial issues at stake, given their essential role in energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
Reducing energy consumption and energy efficiency
The food industry is an energy-intensive sector, due to its intensive industrial processes and complex supply chain. A successful transition requires not only better management of energy consumption, but also improved energy efficiency to reduce costs and environmental impact, and meet ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) objectives. GreenYellow , through its #SHIFTEfficiency, for energy efficiency, and #SHIFTEnergyServices, for energy services, supports agri-food companies across the entire value chain, by intervening in all utilities (heating, cooling, lighting, HVAC, etc.).
Use of renewable energies
One of the priorities for the industrial energy transition is to shift from dependence on fossil fuels to increased use of renewable energy sources, such as solar power, in order to reduce carbon emissions, minimize environmental impact and meet ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) objectives. GreenYellow has been a recognized expert in decentralized solar production since 2007, with its #SHIFTProduction offer, which includes turnkey contracts and tailor-made for rooftop solar photovoltaic power plants and parking lot shading, for example.
Energy demand management
Energy transition can also include energy demand management strategies, such as using energy storage batteries and regulating consumption to avoid peaks in demand, thus optimizing the use of resources and reducing energy costs. GreenYellow offers a proactive approach in this area, and goes even further by proposing a micro-grid model thanks to its partnership with Schneider Electric. This initiative aims to promote more sustainable and efficient energy management for food processing sites and facilities.
Technological innovation
The energy transition requires the adoption of new, more environmentally-friendly technologies. This includes less energy-intensive production equipment, innovative heating and cooling systems, and energy-efficient processing methods, among others. When we work with GreenYellow, our clients are assured of benefiting from the latest technological advances in the field, for the areas in which we operate, and this without any initial investment on their part. GreenYellow offers transparent contracts with no financial risk, as we finance and manage our projects entirely on our own. As a result, our clients remain focused on investments dedicated to their core business, while effectively controlling their operating expenses.
The energy transition in the agri-food sector is an opportunity to reduce its environmental impact while improving the operational efficiency and overall sustainability of the agri-food industry. This will require concerted efforts from all the players involved to achieve these goals. By calling on the expertise of GreenYellow, companies in the agri-food sector can tackle this transition effectively and successfully, and actively commit themselves to a more sustainable future.
