The first photovoltaic energy plant in SP in the test phase

A project that has a good amount of investment – ​​More than 450 thousand just in equipment and a total of 100 kW of power and an area of ​​one thousand square meters.

Initially, a test period of 90 days will be carried out, throughout the test phase the specialists will assess whether the installation of the photovoltaic plant is really feasible and whether it is within operating parameters. If this test is positive, the idea is that more than one plant will be installed around the Billings and Guarapiranga dams. Which sounds like a genius idea.

' The support of the population and privatization is extremely important' Says Marcos Penido, Secretary of Infrastructure and Environment

“We are looking for more and more ways to encourage the preservation of the environment through the sustainable development of these dams, which are extremely important for supplying the region”, he adds.

Tractebel, which is the engineering company responsible for observing and developing the photovoltaic plant project, will also be primarily responsible for installing plants I, II and III.

And for a better use of the solar energy that will be generated during the test phase of the photovoltaic plant, Jacinto Maia Pimentel says that the project will also include energy storage in hydrogen and electrochemical systems.

“We are going to store energy generated through the solar source to try to have a longer period of energy supply from this source”, said the technical manager of the Research, Services and Technological Innovation Management of Furnas, Jacinto Maia Pimentel.
