Solar Power Plant Deubach
Challenge
With the construction of the 48-megawatt solar park near Deubach, in the Main-Tauber district, BELECTRIC took on a new challenge. The Franconian solar energy specialist was not only responsible for project development and plant construction, but for the first time also assumed the role of owner, integrating the photovoltaic park into the portfolio of its asset management company, BELECTRIC Greenvest. BELECTRIC is also responsible for the plant’s operation and maintenance (O&M). An additional challenge was that part of the photovoltaic installation is located on land with a significant natural slope.
Solution
Throughout the planning and execution of the construction works, special attention was given to an ecological and nature-friendly implementation of the solar power plant. On the 38-hectare project area where almost 90,000 modules were installed, a special seed was used to protect the skylark, for example. In Deubach, BELECTRIC once again combines sustainable energy generation with the preservation of natural habitats. The solar farm does not compete with agricultural use as it was built on land with low agricultural land grades, unsuitable for agricultural cultivation anyway. Moreover, to prevent a long distance to the nearest grid connection point, BELECTRIC also constructed a separate substation for electricity feed-in.
