Case Study - Baxter Laboratories
Choice Energy helps Baxter Laboratories reduce its emissions, equivalent to planting and growing 8,000 trees per year
Our Customer
Baxter Laboratories is a TGA licensed manufacturer of skin care, sunscreen and topical pharmaceutical products. Baxter has always been committed to high environmental and sustainability standards. Using clean resources from the Australian environment, Baxter Laboratories develop and manufacture the highest quality products for its customers.
Given the sustainable ethos of the company, the owners were keen to explore solar for their manufacturing site. The other major driver was that they’d also experienced a 100% increase in the daytime cost of power.
How we helped
Baxter Laboratories engaged with Choice Energy who provided a solar feasibility report.
It was identified that by converting to solar power, Baxter Laboratories would reduce its carbon footprint by the equivalent of 715 barrels of oil or over 8,000 new trees planted per year.
The business would also see significant cost reductions across its energy bills. With over 1,100 solar panels installed, at full capacity Baxter Laboratories is projected to generate enough electricity to power more than 300 homes.
