Croatia, Zagreb: KONČAR Distribution and Special Transformers Inc. has announced an investment into a resilient and sustainable energy transition.
The company has funded and installed the first 1.1 MW PV power plant on the roof of its manufacturing facility, which was successfully completed and commissioned early this year.
Electricity will be generated by 4,266 panels installed, and it is estimated that the power plant will generate 1,456.16 MWh annually. Over 7,000 square meters of the roof surface is covered with panels, and the electricity generated will cover up to 35% of their entire electricity consumption. This project will drive down overhead costs and is expected to reduce CO2 emissions by about 35 %, or 480,532.80 kg per year.
KONČAR – Generators and Motors Ltd. for production and KONČAR Motors and Electrical Systems have also kicked off the projects of building their own integrated photovoltaic power plants, which are both expected to be commissioned this year.
