Engineering, interfaces and documentation as one system

Every design starts from one consistent technical concept: plant layout, electrical design, protection and metering concepts and the interfaces to the grid connection are developed together and documented in reviewable deliverables.

  • Engineering driven by expertise and experience
  • Interfaces clearly defined
  • Documented for review

Technical scope in detail

The service modules are clearly structured and can be combined to match the project phase, plant configuration and technical requirements.

Plant Concept & Design

The technical basis, established before detailed engineering costs arise.

  • Preliminary plant concept
  • Plant layout
  • Module, string and inverter configuration
  • Optimized BESS configuration
  • Yield simulation with PVsyst and PV*SOL
  • Technical variant assessment

Electrical Engineering

Electrical design developed to construction-ready documentation.

  • Single Line Diagram (SLD)
  • Cable trench and cable dimensioning
  • Support throughout the entire certification process
  • Protection and metering concepts
  • Approval of plans to be built
  • Communication architecture (EMS, PPC, SCADA)

Grid Connection & Coordination

Technical interfaces towards every external stakeholder.

  • Grid connection interfaces and point of connection
  • Technical coordination with network operators
  • Grid compliance requirements
  • Technical coordination with suppliers

Construction Support

Technical support from site works through commissioning.

  • Technical support during construction
  • Commissioning preparation

As-built Documentation

Documentation of the plant as constructed.

  • Technical documentation
  • Creating as-built and reviewable documents
