Industries We Serve : Logistics
Making supply chains cleaner and more sustainable with renewable energy
The logistics industry worldwide is currently experiencing rapid and widespread changes, driven by new technologies, increased volumes, and changes in consumer behaviour, among other factors. For a long time, the supply chain environment was exempt from the rapid changes taking place in many other industries around it. Until recently most materials handling activities were very labour-intensive. Human hands were needed to receive, put away, count, pick, pack, and dispatch items.
The increasing importance and adoption of equipment and solutions that are based on artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, the internet of things (IoT), and robotics is disrupting many parts of the industry. Robot pickers and packers, smart stock counting and management, and other options are likely to become more common in the average warehouse, distribution centre, and other types of materials handling facility over the next few years.
The deployment and use of this technology and equipment is improving the efficiency and accuracy of supply chains, but it comes at a price – higher energy requirements. All the new devices and pieces of materials handling equipment must be powered, almost always by electricity.

Moving away from fossil-fuel based power can cut costs and reduce risks
Rising costs and a limited supply of oil, coal, natural gas, and other fossil fuels (a situation that is likely to worsen into the future), unavailable or unreliable utility grid power, and the risk of operational disruptions due to load shedding, breakdowns and other planned or unplanned power outages are all factors that make it worthwhile for you to consider using renewable energy to fully- or partially power your warehouse, distribution centre, or other materials handling chain facility.
If implemented and used correctly, renewable energy increases profitability and improves operational efficiency.
Logistics
Invest in the future
There is also growing awareness within the logistics and supply chain industry of the need for warehouses, distributions centres, and other materials handling facilities to improve their environmental profile by operating in a way that lowers their carbon footprint, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and ensures that they have minimal to no impact on global warming and climate change.
Many businesses now factor sustainability into their buying decisions or choice of logistics partner, and there is increasing pressure from governments and other organisations to encourage logistics businesses to act in the most environmentally friendly manner possible.
Switching over to renewable energy is an investment in our environment and future as well as in your business.
