PRESS RELEASE CBS Solar, acting as the general contractor, assembled a team consisting of Sonali Energees, Green Brewery Project, Renovo Power, Pro Refrigeration and SW Controls. They have just completed the construction of a project for Dark Horse Brewing Company in Marshall, MI. One of Michigan’s larger beer manufacturers will now be more energy efficient, using much less energy than before. The Dark Horse Brewing Company expansion project includes doubling production, energy efficiency monitoring and improvements and renewable energy production from solar. Funding was provided through Michigan Saves. Most of the products used are Michigan made, creating jobs throughout the state. This solar electric system will cover approximately 15% of the taproom and brewery’s energy needs, which is roughly the equivalent of the power needed for over 5 average households. This system is quoted as “the largest solar electric farm of any brewery in the United States east of the Mississippi River”.
