Self-supply, one of the energy solutions with the highest potential for savings both for businesses and manufacturers as well as for homes, also helps companies increase their efficiency and reduce their environmental impact.
In Catalonia, EDP is present with more than 5,000 photovoltaic installations, 700 million kWh of energy supplied to customers annually, 22 MW of installed wind power and a presence in electricity grids through the company Electra de Llobregat.
EDP carried out a study on the savings potential of companies in Catalonia thanks to its ability to build photovoltaic installations. In the case of Granollers, with almost 2,551 hours of sunshine per year and almost 1,000 individual businesses, 90.75% have enough space to accommodate photovoltaic installations. If solar panels were installed in all homes and businesses with enough roof surface, the energy savings would cover the average annual consumption of 80,595 households. In addition, the photovoltaic generation of these panels would make it possible to circumnavigate the world more than 850 times in an electric vehicle.
