The PV system includes PV modules, inverters and other equipment, and will begin generating electricity later this month.

Electricity generated by a total of 448 PV modules installed over a surface area of 700sq mt will cover approximately 3% of the manufacturing, air conditioning and lighting requirements at Makita’s marine diesel engine factory.

The installation is expected to generate approximately 94,730kWh of electricity annually, and will help reduce environmental impact through the use of renewable energy, exemplifying Makita’s commitment towards creating a low-carbon society.
