Transforming Sustainable Production with Bentaus

Golden Coast Mead is working with Bentaus to tackle a significant challenge in the alcohol and beverage industry: reducing carbon emissions from the fermentation process while optimizing their energy use. Together, we’re integrating advanced solutions that make their operations as sustainable as their craft, setting the stage for a more environmentally friendly future in the beverage industry.

The Challenge

Golden Coast Mead’s fermentation process produces carbon emissions that impact their sustainability goals. They needed a comprehensive solution to track, reduce, and verify these emissions while also managing energy costs effectively. The key challenge was to ensure that these goals could be met without disrupting their production, maintaining the quality and consistency of their mead.

THE SUCCESS

Real-Time Carbon Management

We have deployed our carbon sensors to track emissions directly from the fermentation process, providing real-time data on carbon output. This data is being used to integrate carbon reduction methods, ensuring that Golden Coast Mead can manage their carbon footprint while keeping their production processes intact. We’re also working closely with them to incorporate Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodologies, offering a holistic view of their environmental impact.

Energy and Carbon Tracking with IoT

Our collaboration involves the installation and integration of IoT-enabled devices that track energy use and carbon emissions throughout the facility. This enables Golden Coast Mead to have precise control over their energy consumption and emission levels, providing them with actionable insights to improve efficiency and reduce waste.

Collaborating with Carbon Verifiers

We’re partnering with Golden Coast Mead to ensure their carbon reductions are verified and certified by recognized entities. By working with leading carbon verifiers, we’re helping them turn their carbon management efforts into potential revenue streams, including the sale of verified carbon credits, and ensuring their efforts meet the highest standards in sustainability reporting.

The Solution: Bentaus’ Comprehensive Approach

Bentaus stepped in with a complete turn-key approach, combining our proprietary Bentaus SRI and MRV platforms with modular Bentaus BOX data centers to transform the Raymondville Energy Park into a real-world demonstration of what’s possible.

Bentaus is implementing a customized solution for Golden Coast Mead, combining our Bentaus SRI and MRV platforms with their existing renewable energy setup. Here’s how we’re making it happen:

  • Integrating Bentaus SRI: Our Sense Response Intelligence (SRI) software is being implemented to manage energy flow between solar arrays, BESS, and grid power. Through real-time data analysis, we’re helping Golden Coast Mead optimize energy use, working towards significant cost reductions and ensuring uninterrupted production.
  • Advanced Carbon Tracking with Bentaus MRV: Our MRV system’s real-time carbon sensors provide precise monitoring of emissions from the fermentation process. This data is being used to guide the integration of carbon reduction methods while enabling accurate reporting for verifiers, making it easier for Golden Coast Mead to demonstrate their sustainability efforts.
  • Scalability with IoT Solutions: Our IoT-enabled devices are being installed to monitor energy and carbon metrics throughout the facility. This allows for continuous data collection, enabling Golden Coast Mead to make informed decisions that align with their environmental goals and improve operational efficiency.

What’s Next?

Golden Coast Mead is on a journey to become a leader in sustainable brewing, with the support of Bentaus’ innovative solutions. As we continue our partnership, the focus remains on achieving measurable carbon reductions, optimizing energy use, and setting new standards for environmentally conscious production in the beverage industry.
