"Achieving sustainable energy and reducing your carbon footprint are both proactive. They are carefully conceived of 'who we are' and 'what we believe'. They are concepts designed to become one with our environment. We are all responsible. To you. To our world."
~Hal Hawk, President, Crown Battery
Proactive Steps
Crown Battery has a history of being proactive and taking the needed steps to make products and processes right. When Crown Battery launched into the renewable energy market, they started by evaluating the marketplace needs and developing an innovative array of storage battery products, not repackaged cells, that provide best-available power solutions for solar and wind power solutions. These batteries offer capacity ratings that range from 120 to 3690 ampere-hours (100 hour rate).
Seeing the opportunity available, Crown integrated solar energy in their manufacturing operations to reduce their own reliance on grid electricity. This was done in an existing building they revamped to meet their production and business needs, rather than building new, thereby pairing efficiency with the renewable energy they were creating.
The third aspect of renewability comes by way of their Battery Recycling Program. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, lead batteries are the most recycled and recyclable item in North America. These materials are 99% recyclable -- more than an aluminum can or any other battery technology.
Beneficial Results
When you consider the large selection of choices you have in battery manufacturers, knowing you have a company focused on being environmentally responsible as well as forward thinking in ways to promote renewable energy matters. The renewable batteries produced by Crown are ideal for energy storage in off-grid applications and for uninterrupted power supply for grid-connected users - giving you virtually unlimited configuration options, better temperature management, and more.
