Photovoltaic Panels

Photovoltaic panels are devices used to convert solar energy into electrical energy. This type of technology produces clean energy, only using the sun's energy, which is a non-polluting and environmentally friendly energy source.
At Valsabor, the solar installation occupies practically the entire roof, in an area of approximately 5000 m2, which allows the company to achieve a high autonomy in its electricity consumption. This investment avoids the annual emission of 700tCO which significantly reduces the company's environmental footprint.

At Nutriaves, there are 1116 photovoltaic modules and an installed power of 496,62 kWp, this photovoltaic plant will avoid around 330tCO2, a number equiva lent to more than 2350 planted trees, allowing the company to reach an energetic autonomy of 42%, thus becoming even more competitive in the market.
We are proud to continue developing photovoltaic solutions for the group companies!

Sustainable Tip
Turn off lights. Where possible minimise the use of artificial light and let in sunlight.
