A Energy Cup, a company specialized in bottling, marketing and distribution of LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas), inaugurated the first photovoltaic plant to supply its Mataripe (BA) unit.
In an area of 10 thousand square meters, the company's expectation is that the solar plant will generate up to 1.400 MWh per year under normal weather conditions.
According to the company, the energy generated by the project will guarantee the energy self-sufficiency of the unit, which becomes fully sustainable with local generation.
