Suppliers' consumption much greater than manufacturers', organisation points out.

COLD stores can massively benefit more from solar power compared to other industries, according to the British Frozen Food Federation.
 
As many suppliers have a seven-day consumption profile, cold stores running all the time will be consuming power seven days a week whereas manufacturers usually consume power for five days a week.

The benefit of this profile means the return on investment will be considerably shorter, meaning a solar system could potentially only take two to three years to pay for itself.
