Words From The Mayor Of Uberlândia About The Solar Energy Project
According to Odelmo Leão, mayor of Uberlândia, this is yet another innovative project in the solar energy sector that promises to bring enormous improvements to Uberlândia (MG) in various ways. “In addition to having a plant with photovoltaic panels that generate clean energy, we will be responsible for our own energy production,” highlighted the mayor.
The improvement also includes the benefit known as payback. Once the solar power plant pays for itself with the energy generated, it brings savings on the end consumer’s bill. The company responsible for installing the plant with hundreds of photovoltaic panels will be Solar Power. The total investment for the installation of the solar power plant will be nearly R$ 900 thousand, and the responsible authorities for overseeing the project will be the Secretariats of Government, Communication, Environment, and Urban Services.
