What will you be financing?

This campaign aims to finance a photovoltaic self-consumption system for the company Santos & Ferreira, Lda

The installation and operation of the solar panels will be carried out by the campaign promoter: Solcor Portugal, specialising in solar installations.

With more than three decades of experience in light metalworking, Santos & Ferreira, Lda stands out for its serial production capacity and industrial maintenance quality. Equipped with the necessary technology and a highly qualified team, it offers solutions for industries such as aeronautics, automobiles, food, chemicals, energy (including renewables), and others. A diversified portfolio that reflects the company's versatility and commitment to quality and innovation.

The funds raised through this campaign are intended to finance the installation of a solar system with a capacity of 34.50 kWp. This project will enable annual production of approximately 52.82 MWh, and energy self-sufficiency of 51%. This will guarantee a significant reduction in operating costs. Santos & Ferreira, Lda is committed to sustainability and will also replace the roof with fiber cement to achieve greater energy efficiency. 

This is Solcor's twentieth campaign. 13 of the 19 previous campaigns financed solar energy for social organizations: Social Solar Solcor, Social Solar Solcor II, Social Solar Solcor III, Social Solar Solcor IV, Social Solar Solcor V, Social Solar Solcor VI, Solar Casarão, Social Solar Solcor VII, Social Solar Solcor VIII, Social Solar Solcor IX, Social Solar Solcor X, Social Solar Solcor XI, Social Solar Solcor XII, Solar Neutripuro, and Social Solar Solcor XIII.

What is the impact?

Direct

  • Contribution to the decarbonisation of Portugal, avoiding CO2 emissions: With a total production of clean energy of over 52 MWh per year, the solar plant will avoid the emission of about 4,5 tonnes of CO2 per year. This is equivalent to the CO2 absorption of 206 trees.
  • Cost reduction for the end customer: decentralized energy production through renewable sources, close to the place of consumption, helps to avoid distribution costs, this being the most competitive option. In addition, the company's lower dependence on the national grid makes it less vulnerable to price fluctuations and tax charges. 

Indirect

  • Promoting sustainable business: the project developed for António Evaristo Gonçalves is an example of the applicability of solar power for any business, and in this case serves as a benchmark to similar industries, an important step towards sustainability for businesses in Portugal.
