At Simply Chocolate, the sun is our best friend

Usually, the sun is one of chocolate’s worst foes, as both sunlight and the heat from the rays spoil the chocolate. But at Simply Chocolate, the two are actually best friends, as we have installed a large solar panel system on the roof of our factory in Copenhagen. This makes us 100% self-sufficient in energy when the sun shines.

Sunbeams are needed to make cocoa plants grow, and now they are also needed by us to produce our chocolate without releasing CO2. A healthy climate is crucial for us to continue growing excellent cocoa beans, and it is natural for us to find ways to make our production more sustainable.

Energy-neutral transport

The system means that we will reduce our CO2 emissions by an amount comparable to the yearly energy use of 25 private households. At the same time, we are working together with our chocolate supplier to ensure that our freight from Belgium to Copenhagen becomes 100% energy-neutral. According to our plan, we will reach this goal in 2025.
