15,650 modules have now been installed on the warehouse roof, covering a surface
of 21,000m2.
The system is expected to generate 3.2 million kWh per year, meeting the energy
needs of the new logistic center with an estimated amount 500,000kWh of excess
electricity to be distributed into the national grid network.
The installation is now the largest rooftop PV system on a single building in
Italy. The system was specifically designed with the higher feed-in tariff rate
for rooftop installations, compared to those on the ground, in mind. An 11kW
system consisting of 60 PV modules has also been installed on the parking lot
grounds.
