The electricity generated by a total of 330 PV modules installed on a surface area of 460sqmt will cover part of the electricity consumption used for air conditioning and lighting at the Toyo Suisan Group’s factory. Annually, the system is expected to generate approximately 60MWh of electricity and reduce approximately 18.9 tons of carbon dioxide emissions.
Toyo Suisan decided to install the 62kW system at its Kanto factory, partly funded by subsidies from the New Energy Promotion Council in Japan.
Of the 62kW system, a 51kW system composed of 270 PV modules has been installed on the warehouse roof of the Kanto factory, equipped with Mitsubishi Electric’s three-phase 50kW PV inverter that will convert generated electricity into AC current. There is also a 11kW system of 60 modules on the main gate arch, whose electricity will be converted using a 10kW inverter, also supplied by Mitsubishi Electric.
