Project Overview

Derex Solar is to commence the execution of  a 2.2 MW Solar PV plant for Tata Power in March 2022 using industry standard cells and modules manufactured in-house.

The project is to be constructed on 11 acres of land with the natural landscape of the site preserved.

This solar PV plant in Bern at Bümpliz-Oberbottigen is to be completed in a time of 20 months and made operational in two phases – 1 MW and 1.2 MW, commissioned in March and June 2024 respectively.

  

Challenging site location:

Our team adopted special grouting techniques to hold the pile foundation in place and the foundations were customized at various heights of 0.5-2 mts. due to uneven land surface.

 

 

Maintaining site ecology:

The Solar PV power plant's design involved erecting arrays of pedestals that ensured shadow free spacing between arrays of modules, while guaranteeing that the natural water channel was not disrupted during the ground mounting process.

 

Earning community trust and confidence:

We employed local communities in different project functions and the local authorities, as well as the community, were educated on the benefits of having a sustainable source of energy in the form of a solar power plant and about the eco-friendly design.
