Lambda Scientific – Implementation of photovoltaic energy as the main power supply

Efficient ways of working have gained in importance at a dizzying pace in recent years. Mauricio Ibarmea Elizalde, General Manager of Lambda Cientifica, further explains: “This is not only due to the pandemic, but even years before 2019 there were already clear trends as key issues of the future that routine industrial and chemical testing laboratories like us must achieve in the coming years to keep competitive. One of the most important trends is sustainability in the laboratory. Through the principle of reduce – reuse – recycle as well as establishing a waste management system, getting all laboratory staff on the same page and taking care not only of economic savings but also of the contribution to carbon emissions.”

In terms of sustainability, solar energy systems have proven to be key allies not only in hospitals, public clinics, health centres but also chemical laboratories.

This is why Lambda Scientific started the project to install 60 solar cells in the first quarter of 2019.

In December 2021, after two years of construction, this first stage was successfully completed. In the following stages, up to 90 more panels are planned (50 for the second and 40 for the third stage). The team of Lambda expects to complete the project in the second half of 2022 and achieve the full supply of electricity through solar energy.
