Soltech support the commissioning of one of Sweden’s largest solar parks in Hultsfred
Soltech Energy, through its subsidiary Soltech Energy Solutions, has been engaged to support the commissioning of one of Sweden’s largest solar parks located in Hultsfred. The facility has an installed capacity of 91.5 MWp and consists of 128.912 panels. The commissioning is carried out for the Danish energy company Nordic Solar A/S and the plant is now put into operation.
In the project, Soltech has been engaged as an expert partner in the final phase of the projects to ensure a correct, efficient and safe installation. The assignment includes technical verification, system integration and final commissioning, where Soltech’s specialist expertise in large-scale solar park projects has been crucial for the plant to be put into commercial operation according to plan.
Hultsfred Solar Park covers an area of approximately 140 hectares, which corresponds to about almost 200 full-size football fields*. The solar park, which now is put into operation and consists of 128.912 panels, will constitute a significant addition of renewable electricity production to the electricity grid and also contribute to increased local biodiversity.
“Being asked to carry out this assignment confirms that a high level of mutual trust and being able to support the commission of one of Sweden’s largest solar parks is an acknowledgement of the strength of our way of working. Through our collaboration with Nordic Solar, we create value across the entire life cycle as we revolutionize the energy landscape together,” says Erik Uddman, Head of Asset Management at Soltech Energy Solutions.
The project is carried out for Nordic Solar, which means that Soltech Energy Solutions continue to gain confidence in their major energy projects. Previously, Soltech has been entrusted with the construction of a battery park totaling 18 MWh for the energy company. The commissioning also strengthen Soltech’s position as a leading industry player in advanced and large-scale energy solutions.
“Now we are making a concrete contribution to Sweden’s energy transition, and as a proud resident of Hultsfred, it feels extra great to be a part of the commission and manage this solar park going forward,” concludes Erik Uddman.
