Considered One of the Largest Companies in the Renewable Energy Sector, EDP Renewables Ensures That More Solar Energy Projects Will Be Developed with Walmart

Many companies are increasingly adopting solar energy in their ventures. A partnership was established this Monday, 13, between the Portuguese company, EDP Renewables, and the multinational, Walmart. The signed projects will be developed at facilities present in seven states in the US. A capacity of 38.3 MW will be generated and distributed in ground-mounted projects and even rooftops. The companies’ expectation mainly aims to guide the multinational towards more sustainable practices, utilizing renewable energy.

What Are the Benefits of the Partnership Between Walmart and EDP Renewables for Solar Energy Projects?

Among the 51 signed projects between the companies that establish the partnership, 39 were signed between 2020 and 2021. In total, seven US states benefited from clean energy, including: Arizona, California, South Carolina, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, and New Jersey. As mentioned earlier, the installed capacity will generate 38.3 MW per year.

With this amount of clean energy being generated, it will be possible to avoid the production and emission into the atmosphere or dumping in landfills of 27.1 tons of carbon dioxide or 9.2 tons of recycled waste. The partnership, which has been in place since 2020, is due to the company’s good planning, considered the fourth-largest producer of renewable energy in the world. Thus, as it involves a supermarket, the best and most viable way to generate solar energy was through ground and rooftop installations.
