Viabilidad técnica en la implementación de un proyecto solar fotovoltaico en la empresa Vidrio Andino

Abstract

This study evaluates the necessary conditions for the implementation of a photovoltaic solar project in the Vidrio Andino company, initially taking into account the impact that the implementation of a solar park built years ago had produced, it was evidenced that this park contributes 5.74 percent percent of the energy that the company consumes daily, on the other hand, the company has as a medium-term objective to reduce the CO2 emissions that are generated within the float glass production process, additionally there are shortcomings in the perimeter lighting system currently installed. For the reasons already mentioned above, the company decides to carry out a solar project in the perimeter lighting area, it is evident that the current perimeter lighting system is made up of 65 poles with luminaires, junction boxes, overhead and underground conductors, among other elements that make up an electrical system, in the present study it is verified that the aforementioned elements are in optimal conditions and adhere to the NTC 2050 and Retie standards, which seek to guarantee that the facilities, equipment, and products used in generation, transmission, transformation, and distribution of electrical energy meet the minimum quality requirements in order to guarantee the quality of the service.
