Microgreens is a Portuguese company that specializes in the production and sale of microgreens of vegetables or aromatic herbs and edible flowers.

The funds raised through this campaign will be used to install a solar photovoltaic production unit for self-consumption at the facilities, as well as batteries for energy storage. The project includes installing 60 modules with a total power of 32.7kWp, which will reduce the electricity bill and avoid the emission of CO2.

The installation of the solar panels will be done by Renergy.

¿Cuál es el impacto?

Direct

Contributing to the decarbonization of the economy, by avoiding the emission of CO2: with an estimated clean energy production of almost 55 MWh annually, the solar plant will help avoid the emission of around 7,5 tonnes of CO2, equivalent to planting 341 trees.
Cost reduction for the final client: the decentralized energy production through renewable sources, close to the consumption site, helps to avoid distribution costs, making this a more competitive option than reverting to the national grid. Furthermore, the decreased dependency of the organisation on the national grid, makes it less vulnerable to price fluctuations and fiscal charges.
