Scheuten Solar project realization successful in first half of 2011

In the first half of 2011 Scheuten Solar realized almost 20 MW of large-scale PV projects. Project sizes varied from 300 kWp up to 2 MWp. The majority comprised PV systems on industrial roofs based on an EPC (Engineering, Procurement & Construction) and an O&M (Operation & Maintenance) contract. In addition to these, several free-field systems were implemented.

Particularly in countries such as Italy and Belgium, Scheuten Solar has a firm footing when it comes to realizing turnkey PV projects managed from start to finish by Scheuten Solar. This entails Scheuten Solar being responsible for permits and engineering up to completion, connection to the grid and monitoring the PV system.

The installation of a large-scale PV system is a guaranteed commercial investment. Furthermore, operating in a sustainable manner is increasingly important for companies. The installation of solar panels on (previously) unused roof surfaces reduces the burden on the environment thanks to reduced CO2 emissions. Moreover, the energy generated by the solar panels produces considerable savings in terms of energy bills.

“In recent years our team in Europe have implemented a good number of large-scale projects”, says Lucy van Keulen, Director Project Realisation at Scheuten Solar. “As primary contractor we are engaged in the thinking process together with our partners as early as the preliminary stages of a project, and we coordinate the entire process of implementation up to and including completion. Thanks to the high quality of the solar panels installed, our projects produce an exceptionally good performance ratio. This adds to our great track record, resulting in us generating plenty of repeat business for turnkey projects in the European market. This paved the way for the successful first half of this year.”
