The Project

KAFKAS participated in a European project (Autonomous Management System Developed for Building and District Levels) aimed at studying the energy upgrade of facilities at Lavrio Technology Park. As part of this initiative, KAFKAS collaborated with the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) and Schneider Electric Greece to design and supply materials for a hybrid energy production system that would ensure energy autonomy for part of the Lavrio Industrial Park facilities.

KAFKAS’ Contribution

The 16kWp system was designed to maximize availability and ensure uninterrupted energy distribution. High-quality photovoltaic panels from a renowned German manufacturer were combined with Schneider Electric charge controllers and inverters, forming the core of the system.

For energy storage, battery arrays (OPzV 1700Ah) were dimensioned in collaboration with Hoppecke to ensure maximum reliability.

As part of the complete solution, DC and AC distribution panels were developed to meet system requirements. In partnership with NTUA and Schneider Electric, the project was successfully delivered within two months.

The project’s smart management requirements enabled the integration of advanced automation functions to achieve maximum energy savings for the central administration building, which will generate 26,000 kWh annually.
