Brazil and Peru met this past Sunday in a final full of emotions and in a stadium illuminated by solar energy sources. The final of the Copa América in Rio de Janeiro ended with a score that favored the home team, in a 90-minute game of adrenaline. The Maracaná, witness of the 2019 Copa América final, is one of the main world emblems of football. The World Cup final was held there in 2014, it hosted the opening ceremony of the 2016 Olympic Games; It was the center of the Maracanazo (Victory of Uruguay over Brazil in 1950). In addition, it saw the thousandth goal of Pelé's career, 332 goals from Zico (Arthur Antunes Coimbra) - the stadium's top scorer - and other world-class events.
It is now a symbol of technological innovation and sustainability in Latin America and the Caribbean. Since its reconstruction in 2014, the stadium has a system that allows the use of water and solar C Level Executive List radiation to generate electrical energy. The energy used in the Maracaná is equivalent to the consumption of 240 homes The stadium's solar generation power plant is made up of 1,552 photovoltaic modules distributed in an area of 2,380 square meters . The total solar generation produced by the panels is 500 MWh per year, equivalent to the consumption of 240 homes.
This structure also contributes to the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions. According to data from the federal government, the project avoids the emission of 2,560 tons of CO 2 per year . Likewise, the stadium uses an energy efficiency system such as the automation and control of elevators, escalators, ventilation and lighting of the environments, which saves around 8% of energy . In addition to the Maracaná in Rio de Janeiro, other stadiums stand out such as the Mineirão in the State of Minas Gerais, whose installed photovoltaic plant has a power of 1.42MWp (megawatt-peak) . There are also other giants that have solar generation systems.
