Morgan's Fine Fish
Commercial, Manufacturing
Morgan’s Fine Fish, a long-established leader in the seafood processing sector, has made a significant investment in sustainability with the installation of a rooftop solar PV system. This project supports the company’s environmental commitments by reducing emissions and energy costs while showcasing the benefits of renewable power in food production.
Project Overview
In partnership with MarVal Power, Morgan’s Fine Fish installed a 61 kWp rooftop solar PV system using 135 high-efficiency panels. The system was carefully tailored to meet the site’s unique operational and layout requirements, maximising generation potential across available roof space.
Project Background
Founded in 1860, Morgan’s Fine Fish has a strong tradition of responsible sourcing and sustainable practices. With energy costs rising and a clear commitment to environmental stewardship, the business sought a renewable energy solution to reduce its reliance on the grid and lower carbon emissions in line with its Sustainable Development Goals.
Solution Delivered
MarVal Power delivered a custom-designed 61 kWp solar PV system tailored to the operational needs and layout of Morgan’s Fine Fish’s processing facility. The installation incorporated 135 Tier 1 solar panels strategically positioned to maximise energy generation across the available rooftop areas. Despite the site’s structural complexities, the project was completed efficiently and without disruption to daily operations, ensuring continued productivity while transitioning to cleaner energy.
Challenges Overcome
The facility’s layout required a carefully designed solar strategy. MarVal Power worked closely with the client to ensure optimal panel placement, taking into account the building structure, shading, and load-bearing capacity.
