Energy Efficiency Upgrade at Jubilee IGA Supermarket with Commercial Solar
Located in Wyndham Vale, Victoria, Jubilee IGA is a locally owned and operated supermarket serving the daily needs of the growing community. With high energy usage from refrigeration, lighting, and equipment running seven days a week, the store required a long-term solution to reduce electricity costs and operate more sustainably. TGR was selected to deliver a custom solar power system for the site.
