Self-consumption solar energy plant for laundry cleaning complex.
Description
This campaign aims to finance a photovoltaic plant for self-consumption at Neutripuro, an industrial laundry in Caldas da Rainha.
Neutripuro is dedicated to providing laundry, treatment, and rental services for establishments in the hotel and restaurant sectors. With over 10 years of experience, the company is committed to the quality of its services while maintaining an ecological conscience. To achieve this standard, Neutripuro invests in innovation, like use of industrial machines that guarantee maximum hygiene without neglecting environmental concerns. By 2024, the company will be investing in solar energy as a way of reducing its footprint.
The solar panels will be installed and maintained by Solcor Portugal, a company specializing in photovoltaic solar installations.
The project will feature a 140 kWp photovoltaic plant, with the capacity to produce 195,9MWh in the first year. This installation will be made up of 247 solar panels and will achieve 66% self-sufficiency, which means that the laundry will produce around two-thirds of the energy it needs to operate, thus helping to reduce its environmental impact.
This is Solcor's fourteenth campaign. 13 of the 14 previous campaigns financed solar energy for social organizations: Social Solar Solcor, Social Solar Solcor II, Social Solar Solcor III, Social Solar Solcor IV, Social Solar Solcor V, Social Solar Solcor VI, Solar Casarão, Social Solar Solcor VII, Social Solar Solcor VIII, Social Solar Solcor IX, Social Solar Solcor X, Social Solar Solcor XI, Social Solar Solcor XII.
The Impact
Direct
- Contribution to the decarbonisation, avoiding CO2 emissions: With a total production of clean energy of over 195,9 MWh per year, the solar plant will avoid the emission of almost 27 tonnes of CO2 per year. This is equivalent to the CO2 absorption of 1220 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 Neutripuro 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.
