The State of Rio de Janeiro's biggest PV plant is equipped with three Powador 72.0 TL3.

Rio de Janeiro / Neckarsulm, 04. July 2014 – Together with renowned partners, KACO new energy got the ball rolling for this pioneering Brazilian PV project in record time.

The PV market in the host country of the football world cup is stepping up the pace. The partners KACO new energy, Kyocera Solar do Brasil und Companhia de Concessão Rodoviária Juiz de Fora - Rio (CONCER) are keeping up: In just four weeks they got the 170 kW of the biggest solar power plant in the State of Rio de Janeiro up and running.

The playing field: the roof of the toll station at Kilometer 102 on Highway BR-040. The line up: The playmakers are the 680 Kyocera KD 245 modules, a Powador Mini-Argus organizes and three Powador 72.0 TL3 hammer the 166 kW output into the net. And by that we mean an own goal! Terrible for footballers, but for solar strikers, self-use is naturally a golden goal.

The solar partners scored big time, electrifying the people for decades to come: The operators can expect about 220 MWh every year. Since the 11th June, everyone who pays the highway toll receives their solar powered CONCER ticket.
