Solar roof Voerde

Project goals

• Use of large logistics roofs for photovoltaic systems
• Technical implementation of full feed-in, as well as full and surplus feed-in
• Reliable and trouble-free EPC implementation

Location & Dimension

• Location: Voerde, Panattoni Industrial Park
• Building type: 2 logistics warehouses
• Rooftop area: ca. 60.000 m²
• Number of modules: 15.842
• Installed capacity:
  • Hall 1: 4,3 MWp
  • Hall 2: 2,7 MWp
  • Total: 7 MWp

Technical implementation & construction

GOLDBECK SOLAR took on the implementation of the project as an EPC partner. The system is designed to accommodate different feed-in concepts within a single project.

A full-feed-in solution was implemented at Logistics Hall 1. To this end, two new transformer stations and a medium-voltage distribution substation were constructed.

Logistics Hall 2 combines full-load and surplus feed-in, implemented via two separate converter cabinets, each designed for the different types of feed-in.

This configuration allows for the technically distinct operation of both halls within a single plant design.

Result & added value

The plant generates around 5.3 million kWh of solar power annually. This is enough to supply approximately 1,500 households with renewable energy. By utilising the large roof areas of the new logistics building, solar power is generated directly where suitable space is available.
