WDP needs to invest in renewable energies in order to implement its Climate Action Plan, which commits the company to becoming Net-Zero by 2050. The plan outlines the development of a sustainable business capable of reducing energy costs and carbon dioxide emissions.
Enel X Romania has planned the installation of a 3MWp solar park equipped with approximately 6,700 photovoltaic panels that will be situated on the roofs of warehouses in Ștefăneștii de Jos in Ilfov. This partnership confirms Enel X’s role as a key partner for the real estate sector.
The solution proposed by Enel X will enable the company to self-produce 3,600 MWh of electricity from renewable sources each year, ensuring an economic savings on the company’s energy bill and reducing CO₂ emissions by 800 metric tons annually.
Developing a sustainable business by installing photovoltaic panels is no longer a trend, but a global requirement, due to the common desire to reduce carbon emissions. These systems are even more important in the current context of energy crisis and climate change. Investments in renewable energy sources are no longer just about reducing costs, but also about looking into the future in a sustainable manner.
