The Operator TIM, Which Already Has More Than Half of Its Energy From Renewable Sources, Plans to Build 36 More Solar Power Plants
Yesterday, on December 7, the telecommunications operator TIM announced that by 2021, it intends to build 36 solar power plants with a monthly capacity of 38GWh, enough to supply energy for a city of 150,000 inhabitants. TIM, which already has more than half of its energy supplied from renewable sources, aims to reach 80% next year.

According to Bruno Gentil, Business Support Director at TIM, by 2020, 24 projects were implemented, responsible for supplying 15 GWh to over 8,000 user units, such as antennas, telecommunications towers, and company stores.
Currently, the project has partnerships with 30 utilities and 14 suppliers. For example, in a franchise operation, it can achieve 89% of its UC coverage.

Renewable energy sources are gaining global prominence by driving the energy transition and reducing environmental impacts in the face of advancing climate change.
Bruno Gentil said that “Even with the pandemic, we can reach 36 plants, exceeding 78% consumption with energy from renewable sources by December. For 2021, we want to expand solar power and by 2025 reduce energy costs using surplus resources in the constant revitalization of the grid.”
Solar Plants:
The photovoltaic solar power plant (also called solar park or photovoltaic central) is a large-scale solar energy system designed for the production and sale of electric energy, responsible for supplying high-voltage energy for distribution.
The energy production of the solar power plant comes from photovoltaic panels that convert sunlight into electricity to be sold to the grid. Most solar power plants in the world are built on land. They are mostly fixed, but can also be built with so-called “trackers,” solar followers that track the movement of the sun.
