Spanish Grupo Costa increases its energetic self-sufficiency
Spanish Grupo Costa takes a further step in its sustainability plan with the installation of solar panels at all its production units across the country. The measure, whose main objective is energy efficiency and the reduction of environmental impact, will be implemented from April in four phases until completing the 35 centers that Costa has in Spain. The entire process will last two years and will be developed by the company MNM Solar, announced the company.
In total, the installed power will exceed 10,000 kW and its annual production will mean a self-consumption of 15,173,000 kWh per year, which will no longer be consumed from the electricity grid.
Consequently, CO2 emissions into the atmosphere will be reduced by 9,120 tonnes, the equivalent of the effect of planting 456,047 trees each year. In addition, the measure contemplates that the possible surpluses of these photovoltaic installations be derived to the electrical network so that other consumers can make use of them and their production is not wasted, Carnica magazine announced.
