What will you be financing?

This campaign aims to finance a photovoltaic plant for the Associação Centro de Solidariedade Social Padre José Filipe Rodrigues, a nonprofit social institution dedicated to elderly care and community support.

Centro de Solidariedade Social Padre José Filipe Rodrigues (CSSPJFR) is a Private Institution of Social Solidarity (IPSS) founded in 1989. The association is dedicated to supporting the elderly and promoting social well-being in the local community.

The contract signed between Solcor Portugal and the association includes the installation of a electric car charger and a 63,7 kWp solar photovoltaic system for self-consumption, composed of 108 panels (590W each), two inverters (30 kW and 20 kW), and a support structure. It will enable the production of over 93,2 MWh of clean energy per year.

The installation and operation of the facilities will be installed and operated by the campaign promotor: Solcor Portugal, a company specializing in the development and operation of solar photovoltaic installations.

What is the impact?

Direct

Contribution to the decarbonisation of Portugal, avoiding CO2 emissions: With a total production of clean energy of over 93,2 MWh per year, the solar plant will avoid the emission of about 4 tonnes of CO2 per year. This is equivalent to the CO2 absorption of 186 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.
