THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE TERNEUZEN SOLAR PARK AT A GLANCE
QUALITY WITHOUT COMPROMISE
DETAILS OF SOLUTIONS & SERVICES
We not only build projects that we have developed ourselves but also act as EPC on behalf of customers, partners, and investors. This means that we provide all services required for the turnkey construction of a solar power plant.
Design of the plant (Engineering)
The technical design for Terneuzen was prepared by our experienced solar professionals, taking into account the general conditions on site, such as terrain and grid connection capacity, as well as additional contractual requirements and Pfalzsolar standards.
Delivery (Procurement)
Our long-standing relationships with all reputable manufacturers and the scalability of our procurement process due to large order quantities are a significant advantage for our clients, particularly in component procurement.
Construction including commissioning (Construction)
We rely on our experience and know-how: with a competent construction manager on site, we have ensured that the project is completed quickly and smoothly. We placed the highest value on high-quality execution in all construction phases – from the erection of the substructure to the grid connection.
LOOKING AHEAD WITH A POSITIVE VISION
ENOUGH SUSTAINABLE ENERGY
FOR A SMALL TOWN
The Terneuzen solar park in the Dutch province of Zeeland reaches an output of 60 MWp with its 111,114 installed solar modules. That is enough solar energy to supply almost 22,000 households with sustainable electricity.
FEATURES/CHALLENGES
Preparation of a future proof customer substation
Future-proof expansion options were developed for the customer in order to be best prepared in the long term.
Construction of the solar park on a sandbank
The ground on which the plant was built was artificially created from shell limestone (Mosselbanken) and did not occur naturally there.
Special substructures with corrosion protection due to sea proximity
The corrosion level of the steel must be designed for proximity to the sea, due to the high salt content of the air at the site.
Ensuring deliveries of main components (Suez Canal blockage)
The project arose during the Suez Canal blockage caused by the ship “Ever given”. Among other things, this unforeseeable event led to delays – our team had to adapt quickly to these developments.
Planning the location for a switchover from 10 KV to 20 KV
As soon as the responsible grid operator has upgraded the grid to 20 kV, the plant can be switched from 10 kV to 20 kV. Then 40 MVA can be fed into the grid. (Switchover expected in May 2024).
PROJECT TRAILER
PLANNING AND DESIGN
The module orientation is 4 modules portrait (vertical), the tables are up to 3.2 m high. For maximum performance, there was a second table design with 3 modules with orientation portrait with up to 2.6 m height.

- Preventive & corrective maintenance
- Early fault detection
- Short response times
- Complete documentation
- Thermographic and electroluminescence inspections
