Project Technical Scope
Medium- and Low-Voltage Systems
Medium- and low-voltage distribution systems are being installed to collect and transmit solar generation safely. Work covers installation and integration of collection centres, site distribution, power cabling and auxiliary power systems.
Specialist Electrical Systems
Photovoltaic panels, inverter infrastructure, DC and AC collection systems and specialist generation infrastructure are being installed and integrated to maximise the plant's energy production efficiency.
Low-Current Systems
Data communications, security, site communications networks and remote monitoring systems are being installed for plant operation and safety, with integration into central control infrastructure.
Mechanical Systems
Panel support structures, equipment and auxiliary mechanical infrastructure are being installed throughout the solar site to international standards, coordinated with the electrical systems.
Automation Systems
SCADA, energy monitoring and remote control systems are being installed. All automation is integrated into central control for real-time generation monitoring, reporting and management.
Testing and Commissioning
Testing and commissioning of the 34.6 MVA solar site, 7.8 km 154 kV transmission line, 154 kV 25 MVA switchyard with redundancy, substations and transmission infrastructure are progressing to schedule. Completed systems undergo performance and integration tests for plant commissioning.
