Take a representative 100 kWp array on a mid-sized warehouse or factory roof in Faro District (Algarve). At the local specific yield of 1,710 kWh/kWp it generates about 171,000 kWh a year. With roughly 70% self-consumed against a €0.20/kWh tariff, that is around €23,940 saved annually.
Against an installed cost near €90,000, the system pays back in about 3.8 years and delivers in the region of €508,500 of net savings over a 25-year life — while avoiding roughly 59.8 tonnes of CO₂ every year.
These figures scale with roof size: many local logistics and manufacturing sites carry 250–1,000 kWp of usable roof, multiplying both the savings and the value of the lead.
