«We work closely with our customers to better understand their challenges and opportunities. The goal is to achieve better, more cost-effective and sustainable operations and here we have a product that AKVA Group will integrate into its system deliveries. This is a system for floating solar energy production that generates 100% emission-free green energy. In combination with a battery pack and water transport of the feed, you can reduce the running time of the diesel generator by up to 90% on a typical fish farm,» says Tore Obrestad, Global Solution Manager in AKVA Group. «By partnering with Inseanergy, we will be able to offer our customers total energy systems that include self-produced green energy that will collectively reduce diesel consumption, operating costs and environmental footprint. This reflects our ambition for sustainability to be at the centre of everything we do. This is part of AKVA Group’s culture and DNA, and it will be part of the solutions and products we sell and buy, as well as a driving force behind innovation.»
«For Inseanergy, this MoU represents a collaboration with an established global player who sees great value in using sustainable technology. We have complementary products, and together we reduce the environmental footprint and operating costs of our customers,» says Egil Hjelmeland, Sales Director at Inseanergy. «Our company is in a growth phase, and in this context it will be very interesting to work together with AKVA Group in a global market.»
