We can say with a certain pride and pleasure that the installation work of the 140 kW photovoltaic system positioned on the industrial roof of the Bari Scalo railway hub, the operational headquarters of Ferrotramviaria SpA, has finally been completed.

To install this system, a specific coordination program was made both at an operational and safety level with our client's managers Giuseppe Laforgia, Vito Mastrodonato, Gaetano Pavoncelli, Giacomo di Castelnuovo, Nicola Labarile whom we would like to thank for their cooperation in the project.

The objective was not to stop the industrial operating activities and was achieved thanks to the daily management and communication of the personnel present on site.

Furthermore, many problems were solved also at a logistical level, which at the beginning of the construction site worried the project managers a lot.

Given the specifics of the site, the work required a greater effort in terms of risk and interference assessment, in fact a system of life lines and perimeter parapets was studied, designed and installed to allow us to move on the roof in total safety, given the typology of the same with barrel faces without lateral protections.

Thanks to daily communication with the client from our staff present on site, we were able to limit interference, guaranteeing the operation of the maintenance workshop present inside without particular problems.

The presence of live power lines to power the train carriages near the workshop where we installed the photovoltaic system represented a further risk factor that we correctly assessed and managed together with the managers of Ferrotramviaria Spa.

In the next few weeks, within the month of April, the plant will come into operation and will be connected by e-distribuzione with an on-the-spot metering regime to allow Ferrotramviaria SpA to self-consume the energy produced, reaching an overall energy autonomy of 30% at the annual level.

And this is how another important industrial job concludes positively with a first-class customer who, according to the industrial investment programs, will soon build other photovoltaic plants on other operating sites.

Ferrotramviaria SpA is a private Italian company with 80 years of experience in the construction and management of railway systems in the national, regional and metropolitan areas, for passengers and goods, able to offer all the components necessary for the construction and operation of a modern and efficient railway.

Gruppo Inveco will be present at the forefront for the feasibility and subsequent definition of new projects.

The installation work of the photovoltaic system on the industrial roof of ICSS S.p.A. is proceeding according to the pre-established programmes. in the production plant of Gropello Cairoli (PV).

The consolidation operations of the support structure have been completed. At the same time, the installation of the first Jinko Solar photovoltaic modules began. Once the work is completed, this plant will include 711 545-watt modules and 3 100-ktl Growatt inverters.

As can be seen from the photos below, in order to limit the operation times as much as possible, the Inveco technical staff is specifically trained to use the latest generation lifting equipment.

According to the programs, the installation will be completed within the month of April. With this plant equipment, the customer will achieve energy autonomy of around 20%.

The contract involves the construction of a photovoltaic system with a nominal power of 387 kW, perfectly integrated with the industrial roof.

Updates will follow at the end of the works from the Gropello Cairoli (PV) plant.

The installation work of the 245 kW photovoltaic system that we are preparing on the industrial roof of our customer Saico S.r.l at the Coldipozzo (PG) plant is continuing rapidly.

Our program calls for the plant to be fully installed, tested and put into operation by 31 March thanks to the intervention of the DSO e-distribuzione.

Simultaneously with the construction of the plant, an Energy Audit/Assessment was conducted on the entire Saico plant and on the related production process.

In the photos we show the installation of 434 Jinko Solar Tiger neo 565 Watt photovoltaic modules, a very large and powerful module that goes very well with the current industrial roofing.

The project is also realized thanks to the participation in the "Solar Attack" tender of the Umbria Region which, through European funding (PNRR), will allow the client to recover 40% of the expenses incurred.

Updates will follow at the end of the works from the Collepozzo plant!

On Monday 6 March, the installation work on the photovoltaic system and the storage system at the Gardenia hotel was completed on schedule. The property is located just 5 km from Ivrea and close to the main motorway accesses. A unique place for those wishing to visit the Canavese area, the city of Turin and the nearby Valle d'Aosta.

Gruppo Inveco would like to thank the Lavezzo family, who have been present on the hotel market for over thirty years, for their trust in the realization of this energy project.

The installed system consists of a photovoltaic system with a nominal power of 40 kW made up of 72 Jinko Solar modules of 565 watts. A 30 kW Huawei Luna2000 integrated storage system and 3 Huawei 10 kTL inverters were connected to it. Finally, 3 ABB wallbox 22 kW columns were installed in the parking lot in front of the structure for recharging electric vehicles.

As can be seen from the graph below, yesterday the plant produced 114.85 kWh, of which 83.63% was totally absorbed by the hotel's consumption and the remaining 16.37% was fed into the network.

Based on the hotel's daily consumption, equal to 254.42 kWh, 37.32% of these were reduced by the autonomous production of electricity, the remaining 62.68% taken from the national grid.

This daily result was possible thanks to the help of the integrated storage system. As can be seen graphically, yesterday the batteries underwent two "charge" and "discharge" cycles, offsetting the withdrawals from the grid.
