Año tras año, la lucha por proteger el medio ambiente se vuelve cada vez más urgente, y la energía solar es una de las alternativas más consolidadas para reducir las emisiones de CO2, que son la principal causa del efecto invernadero y el cambio climático.
Nuestro mejor recurso natural: el sol, una fuente inagotable de energía
La energía fotovoltaica se deriva de la radiación solar, que es una fuente inagotable de energía. Es muy importante tener en cuenta este factor, ya que el suministro de energía es ahora una preocupación generalizada en todo el mundo. No es casualidad que el mercado de los combustibles fósiles sea cada vez más implacable, dado que la demanda de energía crece cada vez más, mientras que los recursos de uranio, petróleo, gas y carbón disminuyen progresivamente. Pasar a la fotovoltaica es una garantía de que no surge el problema de las necesidades energéticas mundiales, dado que se trata de un recurso energético infinito.
¿Cómo puede una instalación solar beneficiar al medio ambiente?
Como sabemos, las emisiones excesivas de CO2 al medio ambiente tienen un gran impacto en la naturaleza. La fotovoltaica responde a esta emergencia, ya que se estima que instalar un sistema fotovoltaico de 3 kW para uso doméstico equivale a plantar 190 árboles, lo que se traduce en un ahorro de 38 toneladas de CO2 en 20 años. Una vez más queda claro cómo, con un reemplazo paulatino de las fuentes fósiles por soluciones renovables, es posible salvaguardar el planeta. Un sistema fotovoltaico no es inagotable como el sol, pero ciertamente los paneles tienen una vida útil realmente larga, de unos 25-30 años. Cuando se agota su ciclo de vida útil de 25-30 años, hasta el 98% de sus componentes son reciclables.
Son muchos los beneficios medioambientales de la fotovoltaica, y las razones por las que se considera una de las mejores alternativas al uso de combustibles fósiles.
Energía solar fotovoltaica
La energía solar fotovoltaica transforma directamente la luz solar en electricidad mediante el efecto fotovoltaico. Esa transformación se consigue gracias a las células fotovoltaicas.
Descarbonización
Todavía es necesario optimizar las tecnologías disponibles para conseguir que la eficiencia de las células fotovoltaicas mejore hasta llegar a porcentajes elevados.
Por tanto, es evidente cuanta energía fotovoltaica es beneficiosa para la protección del medio ambiente, ya que su funcionamiento no requiere la presencia de elementos móviles ni la circulación de fluidos a altas temperaturas o presiones.

Year after year, the fight to protect the environment becomes more and more urgent, and solar energy is one of the most consolidated alternatives to reduce CO2 emissions, which are the main cause of the greenhouse effect and climate change.
Our best natural resource: the sun, an inexhaustible source of energy
Photovoltaic energy is derived from solar radiation, which is an inexhaustible source of energy. It is very important to take this factor into account, as energy supply is now a widespread concern all over the world. It is no coincidence that the market for fossil fuels is becoming more and more relentless, as the demand for energy is growing, while uranium, oil, gas and coal resources are progressively diminishing. Switching to photovoltaics is a guarantee that the problem of the world's energy needs will not arise, as it is an infinite energy resource.
How can a solar installation benefit the environment?
As we know, excessive CO2 emissions into the environment have a great impact on nature. Photovoltaics responds to this emergency, as it is estimated that installing a 3 kW photovoltaic system for domestic use is equivalent to planting 190 trees, which translates into a saving of 38 tonnes of CO2 over 20 years. Once again it is clear how, with a gradual replacement of fossil fuels by renewable solutions, it is possible to safeguard the planet. A photovoltaic system is not as inexhaustible as the sun, but certainly the panels have a really long life span of about 25-30 years. At the end of their 25-30 year life cycle, up to 98% of their components are recyclable.
There are many environmental benefits of photovoltaics, and reasons why it is considered one of the best alternatives to the use of fossil fuels.
Photovoltaic solar energy
Photovoltaic solar energy converts sunlight directly into electricity by means of the photovoltaic effect. This transformation is achieved thanks to photovoltaic cells.
Photovoltaic installation. Electrical energy is obtained through photovoltaic panels that capture the sun's light energy. This transformation is achieved thanks to photovoltaic cells made of semiconductor materials.
Photovoltaic parks
The photovoltaic effect is a physical phenomenon that consists of the conversion of light energy into electrical energy. Radiation energy (photons) incident on a heterogeneous structure of semiconductor material (photovoltaic cell) is absorbed by electrons in the outermost layers of the atoms that make up this material. This creates an internal electric current of a certain voltage. The cells are connected in series to form a photovoltaic module.
Decarbonisation
The available technologies still need to be optimised to improve the efficiency of photovoltaic cells to high percentages.
Solar energy is a renewable energy that does not generate atmospheric emissions, avoids the use of fossil fuels and is an inexhaustible source of energy.
Going for decarbonisation
The global economy is decarbonising and in relation to this, Grupo Greco Gres Internacional has already got down to work with this challenging project; the creation of a new 2.9 megawatt self-consumption photovoltaic plant, which will help the company itself to significantly reduce its carbon emissions (up to 50%) and bring us a little closer to the Carbon Neutrality Mandate for 2050. As the world moves towards greener consumption, Grupo Greco Gres Internacional has the firm intention and commitment to help in this transition.
Striving for environmental sustainability
Grupo Greco Gres Internacional's goal is to reduce its carbon footprint on the environment. To this end, the company has embarked on this new project that will bring, at the very least, great benefits:
Therefore, it is clear how much photovoltaic energy is beneficial for the protection of the environment, as its operation does not require the presence of mobile elements or the circulation of fluids at high temperatures or pressures.
