Description
The main objective of the project consists in implementation of a photovoltaic plant in order to assure electricity from renewable resources for the technological process, which will contribute to the significant reduction of electricity costs and will reduce the CO2 emissions. APA VITAL conducted a feasibility study, from which it resulted that the installation of a photovoltaic plant has obvious advantages due to high energy production efficiency, the use of renewable energy and the reduction of energy costs.
The technical solutions propose the developing of an 889 KW photovoltaic plant with direct energy injection into the APA VITAL plant''s own network located at Dancu wastewater treatment plant. The photovoltaic plant will be connected to the electricity grid, without active energy injection into the distribution operator''s grid, only for own consumption purposes. For reasons of efficiency, mono crystalline silicon photovoltaic panels were chosen. This type of technology is recommended due to its efficiency in both direct and diffuse radiation conditions, the technology covering a wide spectrum of solar radiation.
The photovoltaic panels will be placed on the ground and will be mounted on steel profile supports anchored in the ground in concrete. The mounting structure ensures a proper height of the lower edge of the photovoltaic panels from the ground surface to allow optimal operation during periods of snowfall higher than the recorded averages. The photovoltaic plant will produce 1.072 MWh/year for own consumption. Key activities include:
- Project management.
- Financial audit.
- Technical project design and technical assistance.
- Construction works and installations of the PV plant.
- Publicity to ensure the visibility of the project.
Expected outcomes includes an estimated annual CO2 emission reduction of 328 tonnes. The project will also generate 2 new jobs.
