The
facility has a power capacity of 411.84 kilowatt peak, which makes
it one of the largest photovoltaic power plants in Mexico. It
consists of 1875 modules manufactured in the Research and Production
Centre of Isofoton in Spain; their structures have the shape of
the Chrysler logo.
The
modules used in this project can handle the impact of hailstones
of up to 45 mm, which is more than the established requirement
for a standard application according to the Standard IEC 61215,
which in item 10.17 establishes a resistance to hailstones of
up to 25 mm. Furthermore, the factory has been equipped with a
set of batteries that will store the electric energy that cannot
be injected into the plant during the day
At
night, it will supply 150 state-of-the-art led luminaries that
will illuminate the exterior zones of the Chrysler factory. Isofoton
says they are revolutionary in terms of energy efficiency.
The
installation is a joint project between Isofoton and Injuber Soluciones
de Ingenierķa, a company that is part of the INJUBER-INVERSALTER
Group, a pioneer in renewable energy and very well-known in the
industry.
Injuber,
as the main contractor of the project and in charge of the execution,
designed the overall structures, the electric system, the channels,
the tubes, the monitoring, the control and the intelligent energy
management system (with Siemens technology) that respect the environment
and the surrounding areas of the site.
