Tokio Marine launched a service that includes cleaning and guaranteed disposal of photovoltaic panels when purchasing products from the RG Placa Solar e Empresarial line. The insurer is responsible for the maintenance of solar equipment, as well as ensuring the correct disposal of the waste generated.
When contracting, the customer will have solar panel cleaning services available; identification of faults (hot spots and damaged panels); identification of micro cracks, cracks or damage to the surface; ecological disposal (rubble, construction waste, furniture, appliances, document boxes, uniforms) and environmental consultancy.
According to Sidney Cezarino, director of Property Insurance at Tokio Marine, the company is attentive to business opportunities in the renewable energy sector.
“This launch, in addition to showing how attentive we are to the business potential of the renewable energy market, responds to relevant points that are under debate, such as the environmental problem caused by the disposal of solar panels”, said the executive in a note.
“This is an important point, since the equipment – or part of it – that will no longer be used needs to be disposed of in an ecological way. Our service solves this issue by carrying out the reverse logistics of solar panels”, he added.
The photovoltaic market continues to grow in the country, despite a challenging first half of the year due to the reduction in sales. However, the market has heated up again in recent months, which makes entrepreneurs optimistic.
At the beginning of October, solar energy totaled 34.3 GW of power in Brazil, including distributed and centralized generation. According to ABSOLAR (Brazilian Solar Energy Association), the source is already the second most important in the country, representing 15.6% of the electrical matrix.

good morning
You work in the State of Espírito Santo.
UH… THE MARKET IS FREE, BUT WHEN DID THIS COMPANY HAVE TO DO WITH SOLAR PV IN BRAZIL? THE COMPANIES THAT IMPLEMENT A SOLAR PARK THEMSELVES ALREADY HAVE THEIR TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE AND REVERSE LOGISTICS TEAM FOR SOLAR MODULES, BECAUSE A LOT OF THEIR CORRECT DISPOSAL IS USED!! I WANT TO INVEST IN THE ACQUISITION OF AREAS, AND SET UP SOLAR PV PLANTS, FOR ENERGY TRADE, TO BE SOMETHING MORE TACTABLE AND GUARANTEED!
