English wine producers, Three Choirs Vineyards, wins over three thousand nine hundred pounds in grant funding by switching to Target commercial induction equipment. Awarded by the Carbon Trust Green Business Fund, for the upgrade of out dated inefficient gas commercial kitchen equipment at their Gloucestershire site to induction, the energy efficient alternative.  

With the existing kitchen ventilation system struggling to cope with the waste heat being produced by the LPG gas cookline, combined with the rise in utilities costs, the decision was made to convert the current kitchen equipment to the latest energy saving induction technology.

Assisted by Target Catering Equipment accredited Carbon Trust suppliers, who completed the detailed energy saving assessment, the Three Choirs Vineyards applied for Green Business Funding for fifteen percent of the project cost up to the value of £5,000.

With potential energy saving figures predicted, the Carbon Trust granted the vineyard £3,942.84 towards the new equipment, which included, a bespoke Target commercial induction range complete with induction plancha, induction 4 zone solid top, induction 2 zone hob, twin tank FriFri fryer, Turbofan® convection oven and fast action rise and fall salamander grill.         

The Three Choirs Vineyard, Gloucestershire now operates an energy efficient kitchen delivering top quality food with award winning wines.
