Fields of action

 

Photovoltaic

Photovoltaic is a technology, conceived for the exploitation of solar energy, that can transform sunlight directly into electricity.

Elementary component of such system is the photovoltaic cell, made of semiconductor material. The material often employed is silicon, used in various forms: monocrystalline, polycrystalline and amorphous. Multiple cells connected in series constitute a photovoltaic module.

Today produce electricity using photovoltaic systems is not only a significant intervention to safeguard the environment, but also a profitable investment thanks to incentive system for photovoltaic, introduced by Legislative Decree July 28, 2005: the Energy Account .

Photovoltaic plants are, due to high solar radiation in Italy, a new business opportunity for companies and firms, which are increasingly deciding to invest in sites for the energy production and electricity sale .

 

Solar heating

Solar heating uses solar energy to generate heat as hot water. For this energy source is provided, as an incentive system, a tax deduction.

This is a deduction of 55%, sharing out into five equal annual installments, up to a maximum of € 60,00. This exemption is provided for both solar heating and for energy efficiency (envelope of existing buildings, replacement of air conditioning in winter, replacement of fixtures and windows, etc.)

 

Mini wind

Wind energy is a technology that uses wind to produce energy. The small one "mini-wind" reaches maximum 20 kWp, this makes almost no visual impact and low wind speeds, typical of the urban environment, is not a bond for this technology, the turbines are able to produce energy with low flows windy.

In recent years, has witnessed a remarkable expansion of wind generation small on integration of photovoltaic systems, thanks also to a specific law that made it very convenient to achieve them.

Law N° 244 of 12.24.2007 (2008 financial-bill, art 2 paragraph 145), provides a comprehensive fee of
30 € cents / kWh for energy production from wind, up to 20 kWp of installed capacity, for a period of 15 years.

 

Pyrogasification

Gasification is a thermochemical process that consists of partial oxydation of solid fuel so as to transform it into fuel gas. This process occurs inside a device called a gasifier. The combustion of a fraction of the material provides the heat necessary for drying and the volatilization of the remaining material.

The process takes place in an atmosphere low in oxygen ie with less oxygen compared to the quantity needed for complete combustion. The result of this operation is that it transfers the energy content of the starting solid substance into a combustible gas and thus is, easier, and more flexible to use.
