Solar Cover will be installed in the textile company Texathenea in Villena, One of Europe’s first and largest mega batteries. A two-megawatt-hour storage system where both companies are working together once again to be at the forefront of the industry with a pioneering and reference project. with this mega battery that produces A power equivalent to the needs of 500 homes, TexAthenea triggers savings capacity and independence from the electricity grid. The company will combine the benefits of this technology with the energy produced by solar panels installed on the roof of the production center with close to 4 MWp of clean energy.
With the installation of this mega battery for self-consumption, “Texathene is making a qualitative leap in the way it’s manufactured. storing energy in sections where prices are cheaper Where you can’t use photovoltaics or where electricity is more expensive, consume it later, explains Solar Roof manager Luis Navarro Buciega.
Thus, the company “will be able to plan its electricity expenditures more optimally, efficiently and take control of its bill, regardless of the instabilities in the electricity market”.
The mega battery is six meters wide and weighs close to 30 tons.. Thanks to the European Union’s support schemes for energy efficiency and reduction of polluting gas emissions, these systems are now in full expansion, with active subsidies of up to 65% ensuring 50% of them have energy. the price of what is offered in the traditional network.
For Texathenea, the commitment to advance and be a pioneer in innovation is reiterated, as it became a cornerstone for taking a step towards self-consumption in 2018. The largest photovoltaic panel installation in Spain. A total of 2.77 MWp and 8,316 panels at the time. In the first year of its installation, it produced 21 MWh of renewable energy in a day’s production.
After extension of your photovoltaic roof – full installation 14,000 solar panels covering an area similar to five professional football fieldsl-, the company has strengthened its environmental contribution by reducing CO2 emissions into the atmosphere by 2,196 tons per year, equivalent to the equivalent of approximately 2,000 homes.
This success story will be analyzed within the framework of the International Fair for Energy and Environmental Types, which will start this Tuesday. Luis Navarro Buciega, director of Solar Covering, will attend the show on Wednesday and present the disruption that this energy storage system represents in the industry.
Solar Cover company, which has more than 10 years of experience in the sector, adds more than 50 MWp of installed power to roof photovoltaic projects. The company has reinvented itself with a full package solution based on photovoltaic self-consumption installation, 100% pre-financed, precisely tailored to each customer’s energy and economic needs, so that it can generate and consume its own energy through its own roof. Own energy electricity with significant savings of up to 80% in kWh cost.
