Inauguration of the photovoltaic plant for the Municipality of Racale's pilot action
Overview

The inauguration event of the photovoltaic system realized thanks to the CO-CLEAN project, took place on Monday 26 June 2023, starting at 10:00 at the public swimming pool of the Municipality of Racale. The inauguration ceremony and the subsequent press conference, which were held in the presence of the Mayor of Racale, Antonio Salsetti, were also an opportunity to present the project and the results achieved so far to all those present.

The intervention, which saw the installation of a photovoltaic system on the roof of the municipal swimming pool, was carried out with the aim of making the building much more efficient from an energy point of view. The new system will, in fact, make it possible to exploit renewable resources for the self-production of electricity, which will serve to partly cover the energy consumption of the structure. Furthermore, the installation of an electrical storage system has been envisaged, capable of accumulating the energy produced in excess of the needs for self-consumption. This system will make it possible to use the energy stored in particular hours of the day when the scarce or absent solar radiation will not allow the self-production of quantities of electricity, such as to cover all the needs of the building. For this intervention, particular attention was paid to the operating logic of the electrical absorption system and to the real possibility of having large energy and economic savings through the exploitation and on-site production of this energy vector.
