The Castellón multinational Estudio Cerático, an international leader in ceramic design, joins the energy transition through the photovoltaic installation of the Quantum Group.
The installation of 591,3 kWp will allow Estudio Cerático to save more than 1 million euros in electricity over the next 25 years.
The Spanish multinational Estudio Cerático, a benchmark in the ceramic sector, in the manufacture of small-format single-fired, decoration and special pieces, joins the energy transition by incorporating a new photovoltaic installation. The ceramic company is going to start generating its own electrical energy by installing 1.314 photovoltaic solar panels on the roof of its headquarters in San Juan de Moró, Castellón, capable of producing a power of 591,3 kWp of clean energy. of the Quantum Group, which has its Valencian headquarters in Espaitec, the UJI Science and Technology Park.
The move to photovoltaic self-consumption by Estudio Cerático will allow savings of more than one million euros in its energy costs over the next 25 years.
The positive effect of the Quantum installation will not only have a positive impact on the cost of the electricity bill for Estudio Cerático, but will also allow the ceramic company to reduce its impact on the environment, significantly reducing the indicators associated with the carbon footprint. of their activity. In the next 25 years, Estudio Cerático will stop emitting 7.219 Tn of CO2 into the atmosphere: which translates into an effect equal to planting 427.749 M2 of forest mass, in that time.
In the words of the CEO of Estudio Cerático, “for Estudio Cerático, this new step represents a firm commitment to our environment, guaranteeing sustainability by introducing an immediate environmental improvement, the economic impact of which will benefit us in the long term.”
For Víctor Gaceta, delegate of the Quantum Group in the Valencian Community, “photovoltaic self-consumption represents a lever of wealth creation for the Ceramics industry and the entire cluster around it. Being aware of our resources is the first step to taking advantage of them; Solar energy can revolutionize the production costs of any company. The board of directors of Estudio Cerático has demonstrated that it has the vision to maintain a leadership position in the coming years.”
The Valencian Community, due to its characteristics, will experience a significant growth in energy self-consumption due to the increase in photovoltaic installations with a forecast increase in installed power of 1.548% compared to its current level.
