Erzincan Airport Solar Energy Electricity Generation Plant (GES), which is one of the first projects in Turkey where Panasonic products are used and meets nearly half of the airport's self-consumption, has started energy production.

The importance given to renewable energy sources in Turkey is increasing day by day. With the projects realized one after another in our country, which is located in one of the most advantageous regions of the world in terms of solar energy, Turkey benefits more from this unlimited energy source. One of these projects was recently opened and put into operation. Erzincan Airport Solar Energy Electricity Generation Facility (GES), which is one of the first projects bearing the signature of technology giant Panasonic - Girişim Elektrik, where Panasonic products are used and meets nearly half of the airport's self-consumption in Turkey, has started energy production.

The project will meet nearly half of the energy needs of Erzincan Airport...

Technology giant Panasonic, which has signed many important projects in the field of solar energy in our country as well as in the world, has carried another important project to life in Turkey. Erzincan Airport Solar Energy Electricity Generation Facility (GES), which is realized by the company that is the inventor of HIT solar energy technology, known as the most efficient solar panel, in cooperation with Girişim Elektrik, was opened. According to the information provided by Girişim Elektrik, which made the investment on a turnkey basis; With an annual electricity production of 2.09 MWh, the facility will meet nearly half of the electrical energy consumed at Erzincan Airport and will bring back the surplus to the grid. For the project, 3,779 units of 325 W panels were placed and 2.09 MWp power was reached in 6,310 m² panel area. Panasonic The project in which the HIT product was used was completed in 7 months. Girişim Elektrik also installed a panel-based monitoring system supported by inverter and optimizer technology for the project and ensured that the project was finalized by keeping energy manufacturability at high levels with the SCADA system.

It is necessary to turn to renewable energy sources...

One of the most important problems of our world today is the need for energy... Currently, a large proportion of fossil resources are used to meet this need. The environmental damage of intensively used fossil fuels is now known to everyone. In order to produce clean energy, it is necessary to turn to renewable energy sources. In terms of solar potential, Turkey has an average of 7.2 hours of sunshine per day and 2,650 hours of sunshine per year. This value is very good in terms of efficiency. Panasonic has realized many important projects in Turkey using HIT solar energy technology, which is known as one of the most efficient solar panels today. Erzincan Airport Solar Energy Electricity Generation Facility is one of them. The panel efficiency of the product used in the project is 19.4% and the world record temperature coefficient is -0.258%/C. Panasonic offers a 15-year product warranty and a 25-year performance guarantee for its projects. The products continue to operate with a performance value of 86.2% at the end of the 25th year.
