Description

The main objective of the project is to improve the energy efficiency at Martelli Europe S.R.L. in order to increase the overall productivity of the company, by adopting a highly innovative solar panel system, with a total installed capacity up to 565,34.00 kWp.

Martelli Europe plans to improve its eco-friendly position in accordance with their internal strategy and care for the environment.  They also aim to reduce its dependence of conventional energy as well as to optimize its expenses connected with the needed energy for production processes. Based on the internal analysis, this investment will contribute to a reduction of energy expenses with approximative 20%. The selected technical solution and its innovativeness will support the company to achieve an estimated 203 tonnes of CO2 annual reduction.

The photovoltaic panels will be built on the sloping roof of the company''s production hall, located in Buzau,  with fixing in the roofing sheet and mounting parallel to the roof covering. The structure of the panels will be made of aluminium and will be fixed to the roof by means of special clamps.  The photovoltaic power plant will be connected to the grid by the invertors, which is accompanied by a meter that measures the produced energy versus the energy that is taken-in from the grid. Key activities include:

  • Investment activity in relation to the new PV system.
  • Project management.
  • Financial audit.
  • Publicity to ensure the visibility of the project.

The investment targeted by this project has a positive impact on the company. Its implementation reduces energy consumption from conventional sources, generates energy cost savings and gives a partial energy autonomy. Furthermore, through the reduction of CO2 emissions generated by the production process, the company will green its activity with positive impact on the environment. This project is part of a wider investment plan at company level, targeting the greening of the production process.
