Light energy for Ferrino: 3 years of solar power
3 years of solar power at the Ferrino plant in San Mauro Torinese
www.ferrino.com
Ferrino

The solar power production system at the Ferrino plant in San Mauro Torinese is always online. And the outcome for Ferrino but above all for the environment can only be considered positive. The 396 high-performance photovoltaic modules have met a good part of the plant’s energy needs using a clean and renewable source. Energy with a totally light impact on the environment.

During its first 16 months, the system has produced 303.816 KW, saving some 157 ton of carbon emissions and fuel oil consumption of 56 ton .

Ferrino has chosen solar power to move forward in line with nature, working with responsibility when it comes to the community and the planet. This ethos has also been translated into Ferrino T.RES initiatives in support of international solidarity projects and initiatives to raise consumer awareness about responsible tourism. In fact, Ferrino devolves 2% of its earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) to these causes.

Ferrino is a member of AITR, the world’s largest network for the promotion of Responsible Tourism; it is also a member of EOG, a group involving the European outdoor industry, to protect unspoilt nature through its "Association for Conservation" programme.

SYSTEM ENTERED INTO OPERATION: 14 MAY 2008
SYSTEM POWER: 67.32 kWp
PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULES: 396

PERIOD CONSIDERED: MAY 2008 – MAY 2011
PRODUCTION: 303,816 kWh
CARBON EMISSIONS AVOIDED: 157 ton
FUEL OIL CONSUMPTION AVOIDED: 56 ton
