Solar energy for self-consumption for firefighters headquarters
Description
This campaign aims to finance a photovoltaic plant for the Humanitarian Association of Firefighters of Pinhal Novo, a nonprofit fire and emergency services organization located in Pinhal Novo.
With over 70 years of service, the Associação Humanitária de Bombeiros de Pinhal Novo is dedicated to protecting lives and property through its volunteer fire department. Founded in 1951 in the rural area of Pinhal Novo, the association has played a vital role in delivering medical assistance and emergency response across the region.
The contract signed between Solcor Portugal and the association includes the installation of a 28,5 kWp solar photovoltaic system for self-consumption, composed of 49 panels (590W each), an inverter (25 kW), and a support structure. It will enable the production of over 37,8 MWh of clean energy per year.
The installation and operation of the solar panels will be installed and operated by the campaign promotor: Solcor Portugal, a company specializing in the development and operation of solar photovoltaic installations.
The Impact
Direct
- Contribution to the decarbonisation of Portugal avoiding CO2 emissions: With a total production of clean energy of over 37,8 MWh per year, the solar plant will avoid the emission of about 1,6 tonnes of CO2 per year. This is equivalent to the CO2 absorption of 75 trees.
- Cost reduction for the end customer: decentralized energy production through renewable sources, close to the place of consumption, helps to avoid distribution costs, this being the most competitive option. In addition, the company's lower dependence on the national grid makes it less vulnerable to price fluctuations and tax charges.
Indirect
- Improvement of the organization's core services: the cost reduction in electricity expenses enables the association to improve their services for the community.
