What am I about to invest in?

The company EXPOFIN S.R.L. is offering an investment opportunity to support the construction and installation of an innovative photovoltaic system. The fundraising target is set at a maximum of €30,000. This funding will be entirely dedicated to the construction of a 29.04 kWp photovoltaic system at the headquarters of Paradigma S.r.l. in Padua. The project aims to promote energy efficiency and the use of renewable sources, encouraging self-consumption to reduce costs and improve the company's environmental sustainability.

The system to be built will consist of 66 SONNENKRAFT photovoltaic modules, each with a capacity of 440 Wp, to achieve the total peak power. Two DEYE SUN-12K-SG04LP3-EU three-phase hybrid inverters, each with a capacity of 12 kW, will also be installed, allowing the energy produced and self-consumed to be monitored and measured using a dedicated monitoring and measurement system.

The EPC contract

The Energy Performance Contract with Guaranteed Results (EPC) is a fundamental agreement that elevates the project above a simple works contract. Its unique feature lies in the fact that the proposing company, EXPOFIN S.R.L., does not simply install the 29.04 kWp photovoltaic system, but contractually guarantees a minimum level of performance and expected energy savings. This constraint is the very reason for the contract, placing the result at the center of the agreement.

In practice, EXPOFIN assumes the technical and financial risk of the operation: its remuneration is closely linked to the actual capacity of the system to produce the expected energy. Through specific monitoring and verification (M&V) systems, the results are measured and, if the performance is not achieved, EXPOFIN would be required to intervene at its own expense. This guarantee mechanism makes the investment safer, as the customer, PARADIGMA S.R.L., expects the investment costs to be repaid or offset by the savings achieved on its energy bills.

The contract was formally signed by the two companies based in Padua: the Customer is PARADIGMA S.R.L. and the Supplier (or ESCO) is EXPOFIN S.R.L..

THE SCALING SUPERHERO PROJECT

The campaign is part of the broader European program "Scaling Super Heero," dedicated to the participation of local communities, citizens, and stakeholders in projects promoting energy efficiency, redevelopment, and sustainability in businesses.
The project proposes an innovative and replicable financial model to improve energy efficiency, involving stakeholders and the local community as primary investors.

Scaling Super Heero is not only an opportunity for cooperation and involvement for investors, but also a streamlined model designed to facilitate access to the energy transition for businesses through a single integrated solution covering all the necessary phases, including consulting, energy audits, technical design, fundraising, marketing campaigns, on-site efficiency and redevelopment interventions, and monitoring!

An innovative, high-impact project for investors, businesses, and the community.

The Scaling Super Heero research project is funded by the European Commission. with Project No. 894404 and No. 101167752

DEFINITION OF INTEREST RATE

In recent months, the European macroeconomic environment has shown signs of slowing inflation, after two years characterized by price pressures.
In response to this scenario, the European Central Bank has begun a gradual cut in interest rates, after a prolonged period of restrictive monetary policy. This reversal of the trend aims to support economic growth and facilitate access to credit for households and businesses by reducing financing costs . The goal is to stimulate domestic demand and promote financial stability in a still uncertain environment influenced by global geopolitical dynamics and the ongoing energy transition. The new monetary policy cycle opens up more favorable prospects for businesses to access credit and make new investments. However, for investors, this scenario translates into a context of lower potential returns, which makes it even more important to carefully select investment opportunities, focusing on projects with a concrete impact and added value.

In this context, the interest rate offered by the project owner for this campaign—equal to 10.00% per annum—represents a significantly higher return than that offered by other benchmark instruments, such as the 3-month Euribor (currently at 2.00%), Italian 3-year BTPs 3 years (2.30%) or Spanish Bonos del Estado at 3 years (2.09%), all currently characterized by a downward trend compared to the average of the last three months and the last year.
This average spread of 7.91% compared to the benchmark indices reflects both the commitment of the promoter and the attractiveness of the opportunity offered to investors, without sacrificing the positive impact generated by the project. It is worth noting that these yield differentials compared to the benchmark indices, although currently high, tend to narrow in line with the general evolution of interest rates. Consequently, opportunities of this type could become less frequent in the future, in a context where market yields are gradually realigning downwards. Consequently, opportunities of this type could become less frequent in the future, in a context where market yields are gradually realigning downward. Understanding this scenario is essential for aligning return expectations with the new macroeconomic reality, in which projects with a positive impact will continue to stand out for their ability to generate value beyond financial returns.

The work will be carried out at Via Dell'Indusria 19, located in Padua (PD).

PHOTOVOLTAICS

Photovoltaics is a clean and revolutionary technology that directly captures the energy of sunlight and transforms it into electricity. Everything revolves around the photovoltaic effect, a phenomenon that occurs inside silicon cells. When light, composed of photons, strikes these semiconductor materials, it frees electrons, creating a direct current (DC) flow.

In order for this energy to be usable in our homes and fed into the grid, a crucial component comes into play: the inverter. This device converts the direct current generated by the panels into alternating current (AC). The system is completed, if necessary, by storage systems, i.e., batteries that allow excess energy produced during the day to be stored for use in the evening hours.

By exploiting an inexhaustible source and producing no emissions during operation, photovoltaics has established itself as one of the pillars of energy sustainability. It offers low operating costs and the great flexibility of being able to be installed anywhere, from domestic roofs to large solar parks. In short, it is the most direct and efficient way to bring the sun's energy into our lives.

WHAT ARE THE ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS GENERATED BY THE PROJECT?

It is estimated that the renovation work will result in annual energy savings of 39,176 kWh, equivalent to:

                  CO2

Save 16,846 kg of CO2 in the atmosphere every year

                  CO2

Planting 700 trees, enough to cover an area the size of four soccer fields

                  CO2

Avoiding the exhaust emissions of 12 cars every year


These are the effects and benefits that can be generated thanks to your contribution!
