At AquaPri, we are continuously working to make our production as environmentally friendly as possible. As part of our sustainability strategy, we have made significant investments in green energy to reduce our CO2 footprint and support the transition to renewable energy sources.

Our First Solar Panel Installation

In February 2023, we installed our first solar panel system at our RAS zander farm in Gamst. On a good sunny day, the system can generate around 6,000 kWh, helping us reduce our reliance on conventional energy. We expect the solar panel system to pay for itself in approximately four years.

The system consists of 2,200 solar panels, capable of producing up to 1,000,000 kWh per year – enough to cover a significant part of the energy needs at the farm.

Further Investments in Solar Energy

In August 2024, we installed another solar panel system on the roof of our zander fry production facility in Egtved. This system covers around 800 m² and is another step towards making our production more sustainable.

We are also in the process of a major renovation of our trout facility in Filskov. Here, we are establishing a new super facility, which will also feature its own solar panel system, covering 1,300 m².

These installations are just the beginning, as we plan to equip all our farms with solar panel systems in the future.

A Green Future for AquaPri

We use a total of around 13,000,000 kWh of electricity annually across all our facilities, making energy optimization a crucial part of our sustainability strategy. Our solar initiatives are therefore essential for reducing our environmental impact and continuing to produce high-quality fish with respect for the planet’s resources.

We strive to be a leading player in sustainable aquaculture, and with our solar panel systems, we are taking a significant step toward a greener future.
