AEBES (Associação Evangélica Beneficente Espírito Santense), an institution that manages the Hospital Evangélico de Vila Velha, and the Municipal Maternity of Cariacica, both in Espírito Santo, signed, at the beginning of the month, an agreement with EDP to generate energy in a clean way and renewable.
According to the company, 1.068 inefficient lamps will be replaced with LEDs and solar plants will be installed to help reduce equipment maintenance costs. The resources invested total more than R$700 thousand.
“This energy efficiency project will improve the quality of lighting in these spaces and, mainly, reduce energy consumption costs, enabling the optimization of resources to better serve the population”, says Fernando Saliba, director of EDP.

The PAY BACK time is directly related to energy inflation, which is around 20% per year and not 10% as companies are using to budget!
