Abstract

Electrical energy is essential for human activities. Demographic growth, industrial and technological development increasingly contributes to energy demand increase. However, our current scenario related to scarcity and pollution potential of fossil fuels is generating great discussions worldwide. Therefore, the search for renewable energy sources is becoming more frequent. One of the many options that has being used is solar energy, since it is a source of sustainable energy becoming more affordable. This study sets out to analyze a photovoltaic energy system already inserted in a fuel center located in Vinhedo city, state of São Paulo. The intention is pointing out technical, economics and socioenvironmental viability. A qualitative and bibliographic study was conducted with primary and secondary sources, complemented by a case study. Results achieved validated the system on all observed elements with multiple benefits identified. However, the lack of knowledge of society related to clean technologies is a growing concern.
