Solar energy is present from North to South in Brazil, since schools a hospitals to kiosks e needy communities. After all, energy efficiency, linked to economy and sustainability, is what consumers are looking for in their businesses.

As is the case of Gaúcha Technology and Participations, based in the city of São Borja (RS), which installed a photovoltaic plant with a capacity of 1,3 MWp, distributed over an area of ​​6.095,6 square meters.

According to HCC Solar Energy, the company responsible for the project, 1.960 650 W bifacial solar panels from Canadian Solar, as well as four inverters Growatt Max 185-253KTL3-X HV. The modules are made of monocrystalline silicon, with an estimated useful life of more than 25 years and production degradation due to aging of 0,8% per year.

According to the company, the plates were mounted on support galvanized steel, with an angle of 20°. You Structure fixing systems resist gusts of wind, with speeds of up to 120 km/h.

Furthermore, the photovoltaic plant, which is connected to the 380 V three-phase low voltage network, will serve more than 200 customer installations and will provide monthly savings of 1.996.417 kWh/year.

“Finding an inverter that keeps up with advanced panel technology is quite difficult. So, we wanted to bring a challenge”, said the engineer Lenize Rodrigues, responsible for the work.

The idea, according to her, was to reduce the number of areas they were using, but maintaining the power that met the customer's needs. “Another point to be highlighted is the issue of the module, which, as it is bifacial, can generate 15 to 20% more than expected. It then optimizes and brings much more benefit to the customer”, she highlighted.
