Implementation Stories

Kiplo Energy Communities by Cleanwatts
Implemented by Izeda’s Fire Brigade in Bragança (Portugal) in 2024

The Fire Brigade of Izeda has installed a 30 kWp photovoltaic plant and secured an energy tariff reduction of around 20%. Cleanwatts ensured all phases of the project, from the proposal to the planning, from the installation to the management of the Energy Community, using the Cleanwatts® OS operating system.

Result

The Fire Brigade of Izeda will avoid the emission of 11 tons of CO2 into the atmosphere every year. In addition, the clean energy surplus will support the equivalent of around 50 people in the region, which can include families and small businesses in the surrounding area.

The environmental benefits

  • More than 22 000 metered points
  • So far more than 2TWh energy managed
  • 3.7 TB/year data processed
  • So far an estimation of 10.000 Ton CO2 Reduced, based on local solar energy replacing more emitting grid electricity
  • 30% of reduction of fossil fuels in energy consumption of the energy community, since the solution stimulates the consumption from solar locally and shares this production in the community, minimizing energy surplus
04.

The Financial benefits

  • 30% cheaper energy than mainstream alternative
  • Sharing energy promotes additional reward scheme for the energy community's members, selling the energy surplus at least at ~0,05€/kWh
  • Flexibility benefits include additional 10% savings using flexible loads and 18.5% of more surplus shared in the community
