This 600MW solar project is planned for construction in Central Valley, CA.
The project developer hired Solvida to design and engineer the system’s 230kV utility grid connection and provide conceptual project drawings.
As the engineering contractor, Solvida provided the following services:
- Obtained grid connection specifications from the developer
- Analyzed the substation’s capacity
- Designed code compliant configuration of grid protection devices
- Completed project interconnection application
- Figured out the system’s load conditions
- Completed complex solar engineering inputs to the application
- Generated 2 sets of conceptual site plans and array layouts based on client specifications and local land use requirements
The utility accepted Solvida’s drawings for this project without requiring additional clarification or design re-work. As a result, we saved our client 40% in budgeted time and cost for their interconnection process.
