ESHOTta solar energy period begins

ESHOTta solar energy period begins: Izmir Metropolitan Municipality General Directorate of ESHOT establishes solar power plant to produce the energy it will use in workshops and stops. The solar-paneled bus stops will also take you to the city center for a short time.
strengthen the transportation fleet with environmentally friendly and economical bus also prepared to establish Turkey's first electric bus fleet ESHOT Izmir Metropolitan Municipality Directorate-General, is launching a renewable energy revolution. ESHOT, which aims to save both carbon dioxide emissions and renewable energy by taking advantage of solar energy in almost every area it operates in, has gone out to the tender for arak Solar Power Plant Faaliyet. Accordingly, the General Directorate of ESHOT will install solar panels on the 9 bin 250 square area of ​​the workshop buildings at Buca Gediz Heavy Maintenance Facilities. The work to be completed after the completion of the tender process will be completed in 270 days. The plant, which will produce 1 million 230 thousand kwh electric energy annually, will prevent the emission of 670 tons of carbon dioxide annually and prevent air pollution. The system, which is expected to pay itself a year in 5, will be met by one third of the annual electricity need of the ESHOT General Directorate and its service units. The system will be implemented in 2017.
