CARBON FOOTPRINT

Tenuta Monte Rosola embarked in 2005 on a program to maximize its use of renewable energy.
A 35kW peak thermal solar plant supplies hot water, heats the pool and provides about 25% of our winter heating needs.
In addition we have wood burning systems that supplement our liquid gas central heating and use some of our waste biomass from the vineyard and olive tree prunings.
A 10.3kWpeak photovoltaic solar panel installation produces about 14000kwhr per year which is more than half of our annual electrical power need.

Since 1999 we have planted over 1000 trees.
