ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY
We continue to support renewable energy
with the installation of 100 solar panels.
Our environmental commitment is renewable
with the installation of 100 solar panels.
Since its beginning, ACEROLED has wanted to convey its concern and care for the environment and above all for the cost and impact that energy production has on our planet. That is why since the company moved to its current facilities, it opted for an energy source such as wind, having a 3Kwh wind turbine.
Far from stopping there, ACEROLED has made an ambitious commitment to continue with renewable energies with the implementation of a project financed by the European Union – NextGenerationEU for the installation of 100 solar panels. This photovoltaic installation occupies an area of about 220m2 on the roof of our factory, and represents a power of 45.0 kWp, so that each of the panels provides 455 peak watts. This allows us to have clean, green and renewable energy of about 48.0 kWp in our factory, which will help us decarbonize the energy we need and thus improve air quality and the environment.
Our numbers
In total, the calculations indicate that our current annual consumption is about 56,939 kWh and the plant will be capable of producing a total of 47,733 kWh, which will allow us to reduce consumption derived from non-renewable energy by 75.57% annually. Production will vary depending on the months, in the periods with more hours of light and better atmospheric conditions it will provide us with over 90% of the consumption, while in the periods with fewer hours it will provide us with over 50%.
But in addition to the savings on the electricity bill, the advantage of this commitment to renewable energies is that it will reduce the emission of CO2 into the atmosphere. The calculations in the first tests indicate that about 14 tons of carbon dioxide will no longer be produced. carbon per year and will allow us to increase our production without this resulting in a higher cost in CO2 emissions that are so harmful to our planet.
