For Moletto Winery, the sun's light and heat are indispensable for the growth and maturation of its grapes, but soon they will also serve in another way-as a renewable source of energy.
Just installed on the winery roof is an integrated solar power system capable of producing 199.83 Kwp of electrical power. Each year, close to 200,000 kwh of clean solar energy will be produced. And this, over twenty years of activity, means approx. 3,900,000.00 kwh of clean energy produced. Specifically, it means that significant amounts of the following substances will not be released into the atmosphere: CO2 – carbon dioxide 1,934,400.00 kg; SO2 – sulphur dioxide 3,627.00 kg; NO – nitrogen oxide 2262 kg; particles 117.00 kg. Gas and fuel oils saved over a twenty year period: 2,535.00 tons. The choice of solar energy is one that fits perfectly into the winery's corporate strategy centered on respect for and safeguarding of nature which, for over fifty years, has been Moletto's right-hand partner.
