FAQ

Solar energy comes from the Sun and can be transformed into several other forms of energy, such as electrical or thermal energy.

Solar energy is the cleanest, most abundant and renewable energy available on the planet.

The transformation of solar energy into electrical energy occurs due to the photoelectric effect, which is a process where the generation of voltage or electrical current occurs when specific materials are exposed to sunlight.

The transformation of solar energy into thermal energy takes place by heating water in solar thermal panels.

Once heated, water is stored in tanks for later use.

Yes, on cloudy or rainy days there is also energy generation, but energy production will be less in comparison to days without clouds.

The warranty for manufacturing defects of photovoltaic panels is 12 years.

The performance warranty (linear power) is 30 years.

Inverters are factory-guaranteed for a period of 10 years.

The use of photovoltaic energy prevents the emission of greenhouse gases (GHG) produced by energy generation.

The average consumption per person of the Southeast region of Brazil is approximately 2,700 hWh/year, which means the emission of about 315 kg of
CO2 per year for each inhabitant of the region, only for the supply of electricity (source: Statistical Yearbook of Electricity 2020 – EPE)
