This research proposes the design of an energy backup system using renewable energy sources to ensure the continuity of electrical service in a textile industry operating under a 24-hour work regime. Using various engineering methodologies such as energy load surveys and efficiency indicators, photovoltaic solar panels were selected as the optimal renewable energy source. The results show improved energy efficiency and economic benefits, with surplus energy being sold to the national grid, reducing production costs. This work contributes to the company’s sustainability and environmental goals.
