Being Green

Environmentally Sustainable Winegrowing - Working Towards a ZERO Carbon Footprint:

We have committed ourselves to achieving a zero carbon footprintfrom our activities at Paradigm Hill. In addition to having been our own “Carbon Cops” and audited and then reviewed all our energy consumption, we have also installed a substantial 54 panel, 9,450 watt photo voltaic cell [PV Cell] system that is rated to generate about 12 Mega Watt Hours of electricity per year.

We feed power into the grid when it isn’t needed here - and then draw down when we require it! As seen - the ground mounted system [carefully guarded by Jemima], says it all!
