Martifer Solar was responsible for the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) services for the PV rooftop plant. The 300 kW plant, with approximately 1,000 solar panels, will produce clean energy and will lead to the reduction of the commercial facilitys energy bill by up to 18% on an annual basis. With an area of 2000 m2, the PV plant will produce an estimated 486 MWh/year. With this production capacity, the plant will offset 350 tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually and will provide sufficient energy to power more than 1500 inhabitants per year.
"The Salvadoran photovoltaic market is evolving and solar energy will be highly important in the energy mix of the country. Thanks to high levels of solar radiation and the number of hours of sunshine, El Salvador offers ideal conditions for generating energy from solar photovoltaic systems. There is great potential for the development of solar installations on rooftop, especially in commercial and industrial buildings," said Ismael García, Head of Business Development for Central America and the Caribbean for Martifer Solar.
Martifer Solar will continue augmenting its activities in the PV rooftop segment of El Salvador with its local partner, DESENI, and aims to implement more than 2 MW of solar PV rooftop plants for various commercial and industrial clients throughout 2015.
