ANCA invests in renewable energy to power its headquarters

ANCA is one of the first businesses to team up with Australia’s fastest growing business power retailer, Flow Power, to buy power generated by renewable energy sources.An innovative and progressive business model, Flow Power tackles the issue of price and environment with this unique offering. This renewable power, sourced from Ararat Wind Farm, can be used in real time to offset grid electricity consumption, potentially saving thousands of dollars in energy costs.

ANCA Group CEO, Grant Anderson said:“At ANCA we are always looking for opportunities to reduce our impact on the environment and, as a manufacturing plant, the partnership with Flow to access renewable power will bring us tremendous benefits.This is a win-win helping both our business and the environment.”

“ANCA has succeeded on a global scale by taking an innovative approach to manufacturing. We see Flow Power’s unique model of giving companies back the control over their energy costs as an approach that shares our core value of innovation.”

“Furthermore, being part of a wholesale strategy helps future proof us in a market where fluctuating power costs are increasingly become a concern for businesses. The wholesale strategy generally outperforms fixed retail contract prices and provides greater transparency on spend and increased flexibility,” Grant concluded.

Matthew van der Linden, Managing Director of Flow Power, comments, “We’re very pleased to welcome ANCA as a customer and one of the very first companies to benefitfrom Flow Power’s Renewable Corporate PPA. This agreement is one of the first of its kind in Australia and will allow Australia to catch up with other international markets that have proven this model to be a success.”

“Flow Power wants to empower businesses to take control of their energy consumption. Our Renewable Corporate PPAs help businesses to lower their carbon footprint and reduce overall emissions, while benefitting from lower power costs.”

ANCA will now buy its power from Ararat Wind Farmthrough a Power Purchasing Agreement to access fixed rates for long-term savings. While very common around the world, this deal is one of the first in Australia.
