Photovoltaic plant for a bricolage store.

Description

The aim of this campaign is to finance a photovoltaic plant for self-consumption at Bricosines - Sociedade de Distribuição de Bricolage, Lda., a Bricolage Store in Sines, Portugal.

The photovoltaic plant will be composed of 125 panels with a total installed power of 70kWp. This will allow it to produce 111056.4 kWh of clean energy per year

The solar panels will be installed and maintained by Luz Verde a company specialized in photovoltaic solar installations.

The Impact

Direct

  • Contribution to the decarbonisation of Portugalavoiding CO2 emissions: with a total production of clean energy of over 111 MWh per year, the solar plant will avoid the emission of about 9,5 tonnes of CO2 per year. This is equivalent to the CO2 absorption of around 430 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

  • Promoting sustainable business: the project developed for Bricosines is an example of the applicability of solar power for any business, and in this case serves as a benchmark to similar industries, an important step towards sustainability for businesses in Portugal.
