With works carried out by Thirsk-based Dresser Solar, it is expected that the investment will save the ice cream maker £20,000 in year one – with further savings in the following years due to the current energy market.
Sales and Distribution manager, Heather Wilson said: “Being based in such stunning surroundings, we are very conscious of our effect on the environment and are always looking for ways we can reduce our impact. "With a large area of roof on the building where we produce our ice cream, it was the perfect opportunity to install solar PV and take another step towards being greener.
