Green energy for Amara
The problem of global warming and of responsible management of energetic resources is a
priority for all of us. Solar energy is one of the main sources of renewable energy, being offered to
Earth in huge amounts.
In2016 near Amara city the most modern photovoltaic plant from the South East of Romania
was built. It contains 8 rotating devices on which 416 solar panels are installed. These work on the
sunflower principle, that is they revolve together with the sun and more so if the wind blows with
more than 60km/h they align themselves vertically. Depending on the light of each day a device with
52 panels produces about 12.500 kw/day of solar energy.
Amara is one of the first
communities in the country to produce
green energy that is used by the Town
Hall, the School, the Kindergarten and the
public lighting.
In Europe, Romania is situated in the
second area of sunlight. I our country
there can be found 4 areas of sunlight,
from a maximum of 1600kwh/m2 in
Dobrogea to 1250 kwh/m2 in the North of the country every year. Solar energy is practically
inexhaustible and is the cleanest form of energy on Earth. Conclusion: By choosing this type of
renewable energy source all the consumers will reduce their impact on the environment associated
with conventional energy and they will increase their energetic independence.
