Beiersdorf-Freudenberg
A Ground-mounted photovoltaic (PV) plant currently under development
Situated on agricultural land, the project is surrounded by forest and other agricultural areas. The land's topography is mostly inclined from north to south, with a deep groundwater level. The site is approximately 400 meters south of the Beiersdorf settlement. The area covered by the building plan is about 119.8 hectares, with the PV area spanning about 104.7 hectares within construction boundaries. The project faced challenges in adjusting buffer zones to accommodate the local settlement and model airfield. The project will have very low land sealing, less than 3%. There is a guaranteed dismantling of the plant after its operational period, and the project will contribute to increased soil fertility post-operation. A local project development company will be formed to manage the project, and the construction duration for the project is approximately 12 months. Additionally, the PV plant will be connected to the 110kV grid with an operator-owned substation.
The Beiersdorf-Freudenberg PV plant will supply electricity to around 34,000 households. Community benefits include the potential for local participation in electricity revenue and the integration of a solar charging station for residents. The project also involves constructing a bike path and establishing a wildlife corridor to support local biodiversity.
Throughout the entire development process, we worked closely with the local municipalities and all residents of the community to inform them and collaboratively develop the project concept.
Multiple informational events about the solar park and ongoing discussions with individual council members.
Adjustments to project proposals based on community input and close collaboration with local authorities, including the finalization of the fire protection concept.
The potential inclusion of community participation in the electricity revenue and integration of a solar charging station for the residents.
Integration of a solar charging station towards Beiersdorf and the inclusion of battery storage to enhance green electricity as a hybrid project.
