Ceva Logistics has launched a new eco-sustainable logistics warehouse in Martinengo, Italy, which will be dedicated to technology customers.
According to the company, the new 45,000sqm warehouse will produce approximately 1,600MWh a year, the consumption needed to generate electricity for around 450 households, saving approximately 840,000kg of CO2 emissions every year.
The structure's photovoltaic installation is made of 5,300 panels and corresponds to a surface area of approximately 10,000sqm. The warehouse reportedly includes solar panels which will produce hot water as well as rainwater harvesting tanks for land irrigation.
The warehouse was developed with FAP Investments and with FAP Energy. The investment for the photovoltaic installation of the Martinengo warehouse totaled E8 million. FAP Energy currently produces 5.5MW of energy for Ceva. By 2010, it intends to supply an additional 2MW of energy for Ceva.
