Following our commitment to develop and promote our environmental sustainability practices, in 2024 Silga Industries expanded its photovoltaic panel system both in the plant in Via Carlo Marx 54, Zona Ind. Acquaviva (Castelfidardo), and in the one related to the zinc and zinc-nickel activities in Via Oliviero Pigini 25, Zona Ind. Cerretano (Castelfidardo).
In particular, a total of 184 new panels were installed in the zinc and zinc-nickel division plant, which contributes to an increase of 130 KWh in the total electricity production generated by the previous photovoltaic panel system and the cogeneration), contributing to Silga’s energy efficiency and CO2 emission reduction.
Currently, the total electricity production from photovoltaic panels in Silga is equal to 3,450 MWh/y thanks also to recent expansions, while that coming from cogeneration plants is 3,270 MWh/y.
In this way, Silga Industries further concretizes its link with the territory and its protection through sustainability investments.
