Solar energy minimizes impacts of global climate change

There is an urgent need to use clean and renewable energy sources for the benefit of the planet

One photovoltaic system makes the most of the benefits of clean energy, which is generated without the emission of pollutants and is sustainable. With it it is possible to generate your own electricity, which significantly reduces the carbon footprint, in addition to representing financial savings on the electricity bill.

Using sunlight itself as an energy source gives you the opportunity to contribute to a better future for our planet. The kilowatt-hour generated by the photovoltaic system costs a fraction of the price of conventional electricity.

The 4kW Fronius Primo solar energy inverter, for example, can provide a reduction of 90% in the costs of a residence.

In 2011, the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change), reported that in the coming decades the global average temperature will rise by 1.5 °C if humans do not act to contain the damage.

Made up of 195 members, the panel aims to provide regular scientific assessments on climate change and its implications and possible future risks and was created by United Nations Environment Program (UN Environment) and the WMO (World Meteorological Organization) in 1988.

Today, 11 years after the publication of the report, the world population has faced an increase in temperatures resulting in losses in ice cover, desertification, in addition to the worsening of extreme weather events such as tropical cyclones, heat waves and floods.

This is a direct consequence of high concentrations of greenhouse gases, released in the process of converting fossil fuels into heat and electricity. Even small actions make a difference and help protect the climate: Individual measures, even if they seem small, contribute to mitigating the impacts caused to the planet.

Using sunlight itself as a source of energy is having the opportunity to contribute to a better future for our planet and for the population, not only human, but for the entire ecosystem to which we belong.
