A Heineken, in partnership with MOE (My Own Energy) and UCB Power, invested in a hybrid system, which integrates solar energy with batteries, to supply a floating bar of the Pinheiros River, located in the Bruno Covas park, in São Paulo (SP).

The 20.9 kWp photovoltaic plant, installed next to the connected house, is made up of 38 550 W Risen modules, two 16 kW Huawei inverters and a bank of UCB batteries packed in a container, with an autonomy of six hours .

During the event, which took place on weekends from 09/30 to 12/01, the system neutralized more than 7 tons of CO2, equivalent to planting 53 trees and corresponding to the consumption of more than 3 thousand liters of gasoline.
