Rustichella d’Abruzzo: roof and 120 kW photovoltaic system completed

Let’s start from the present: Step 2 of 3 completed, as per program and contractual agreements.

In the images below you can see a situation (before-after) of the structure. The first image dates back to the end of May, while the second was taken a little while ago by our technicians present on site to draw up the report, together with the customer, of the closure of the roof refurbishment works.

As mentioned, only the 3rd step is missing to complete the project, namely the construction of the second photovoltaic system with a nominal power of 350 kWp to be installed with AC ballast. on the flat roof of the new renovated roof.

The construction works of this plant will start in the new year, knowing that it will be put into operation by March 2023.

Let’s start from the beginning by telling you, in short summary, this project that saw us operate as a general contractor (energy + roof renovation).

We will count this company as a “case of success” both for us and for our customer Rustichella D’Abruzzo SpA.

January 2022: the first inspection was carried out on the industrial roof (see photo below) and it was evaluated together with the customer to completely redo the roof, including the replacement of the skylights. The possibility of installing a photovoltaic system (about 120 kWp) sized ad hoc for the customer’s consumption was also feared.

February 2022: several feasibility studies and technical reports were sent to the customer, aimed at representing the various feasible solutions and trade-offs (cost forecasts – benefits).

March 2022: several offers were drawn up both for the refurbishment of the roof and for the photovoltaic systems. Strongly believing in the seriousness of our customer, and aware of the difficult period for the procurement of raw materials and system components, we ordered 70% of the material with foresight.

April 2022: Several technical reviews of the general project definition are carried out.

May 2022: the customer formally entrusted us with the task with the signing of the contract. The installation work of the photovoltaic system began almost immediately, while the renovation of the industrial roof in the first weeks of July.
