Netherlands: 57 MW solar parks completed

Belectric has installed three solar parks with a total capacity of over 57 megawatts peak (MWp) for its customer Kronos Solar. The systems in the Dutch provinces of Overijssel and Gelderland consist of more than 128,000 solar modules combined and produce enough green electricity to supply the equivalent of around 18,000 homes in a climate friendly manner. Belectric also provides operation and maintenance services (O&M) for the PV plants.

"We are delighted that Kronos Solar placed their trust in us again", explains Thorsten Blanke, Managing Director at Belectric. “With more than 164 MWp of installed capacity, we are one of the leading EPC providers in the Dutch market.”

Numerous challenges

Esther Jantosch, Head of Sales Netherlands at Belectric, adds: “From complicated soil conditions and restrictions due to high-voltage lines to demanding grid connection concepts - we have mastered numerous challenges in the context of these three projects. With innovative projects such as the “Haringvliet Zuid” hybrid power plant, we have also been able to demonstrate that we can respond to the specific requirements of the market.”

Near Lochem in the province of Gelderland, Belectric has installed two large-scale PV systems with 20.7 MW ('Lochem I', pictured) and 9.9 MW ('Lochem II').

The “Haringvliet Zuid” energy park, which went into operation in 2021, is the Netherlands’ first green hybrid power plant. It combines a wind farm, battery storage and a 38 MW photovoltaic system installed by Belectric.
