Quality - Safety - Environmental

Quality

Every new material, machinery and equipment used in your installation will conform with the applying E U standards and regulations and the corresponding Hellenic Codes and standards (including PPC S.A. requirements for connection to the Grid). The same applies to any concrete work possibly needed.
Our measurements and tests are being performed with Quality Controlled high class equipments and devices.

Safety

People Health and Safety

We believe that "Safety comes first".
We are fully responsible for the Safety of our Workforce during Installation and we take pride that every Safety precaution (mindless of cost) needed to ensure the user's Health and Safety of property will be taken by us. Upon completion of the installation a User manual will be provided to the customers to help them avoid any Safety Risk.
Please keep in mind that AC electricity can and will kill if an unauthorized and/or inexperienced person tries to tamper with our installation.

Property Safety

Our RES systems if combined with battery banks can easily be connected to emergency lights or other loads as Alarms, cameras and Security systems, creating for you a full Undisrupted Power System (UPS)

Environmental

1. According to the Hellenic Law all RES systems have to be licensed by the appropriate Local Environmental Authorities and there are restrictions that are posed by the Zoning Laws.(see Legislation/Permits)
We cooperate with top class environmental Engineers to acquire any environmental license possibly needed. However you can assign this task to an external Environmental Engineer.
Please keep in mind that the Building permit of the existing house/factory/building where you wish to accommodate your RES system , is your own responsibility.

2. Environmental Data:
Electricity produced in mainland Greece is largely produced by coal Thermal Stations. For example the PPC S.A. thermal Station of "Aghios Dimitrios", which is used as a base-load unit, has an average of produced CO2 1,35kgs/produced kwh. Thus a low cost small wind turbine that produces an average of 3.000 kwhs/year, saves the world environment of a total amount of 4.050 kgs of CO2 every year.
The Aegean islands are mostly independent from the mainland Electrical System but are heavily depended on liquid fuel (crude oil, diesel, gasoline) to run their small Thermal stations. That presents many risks (besides the great cost of purchasing and transporting the liquid fuel), especially the risk of a spill in the sea by the Station or the transporter ship, and the risk of running out of liquid fuel when a long period of bad weather prevents refueling of the Station. Of course liquid fuel burned produces gases like CO2 and NOx .
