The
installation of solar power plants is one of the important environmental
standards and steps in the sustainable operation of the company. We at Aplast
of the Zagožen Group are aware of this, which is why, after a year of operation
of our 612 kWp solar power plant, we decided to supplement it with a new 507
kWp solar power plant. With this, we filled all the existing roof surfaces with
a total power of 1.1 MV.
The
Aplast solar power plant of the Zagožen group is one of the largest in the
municipality of Žalec. With the solar power plant, we take care of the
environment, as we reduce our dependence on traditional energy sources. Since
solar power plants have a long service life, this also allows for long-term
stability and reliability in energy supply. With this investment, we are one
step further on the path to reducing our carbon footprint.
This
is how the Elektro Celje team took care of connecting the solar power plant.
The energy obtained from the solar power plant is used in the processes of the
production of rotoliv, the assembly workshop and the office building, and the
surplus will be returned to the grid. In the future, we plan to introduce a
battery charger to store energy that will be used in the production process.
Aplast has two solar power plants with a total power of 1.1 megawatts, which
means that they could power approximately 100 households. We are proud of our
investment, which was also co-financed by the Republic of Slovenia and the
European Union from the Cohesion Fund.
