Work Detail |
One of Sweden’s first hybrid solar parks has been successfully launched in Halmstad, marking a major step toward a greener and more reliable energy future. Sungrow, a global leader in renewable energy solutions, played a crucial role by providing inverters and an Energy Storage System (ESS). This project highlights the benefits of combining solar power with advanced storage technology to improve energy efficiency and grid stability. Developed by Solarwork Sverige and Powerworks Energy, the hybrid solar park generates over 7,000 MWh of clean electricity per year, ensuring a steady energy supply when it’s needed most. Sungrow’s contributions, including PV inverters and the PowerTitan 1.0 ESS, reinforce its commitment to reliable and cost-effective energy solutions. Mr. Carl Kuylenstierna, CEO of Sperlingsholms Gods, the owner of the plant, mentioned, “We invested in a solar park because we believe society needs it, and solar energy is a sustainable way to produce electricity. We generate electricity exactly when it is needed most, in the middle of the day, and at low marginal cost.” Fredrik Lyckvind, CSO at Powerworks Energy, also added, “We have chosen Sungrow’s technology for both the PV inverters and the BESS system because they are market leaders and work exceptionally well in the Nordic climate. PowerTitan 1.0 was selected for its 1C system, which allows us to charge and discharge in an hour—perfect for the markets we operate in. Additionally, its liquid-cooled technology significantly reduces operating costs and ensures long-term system stability.” The 6.6MWp solar installation features 11,928 bifacial 550 Wp solar panels mounted on the ground. The power is converted using 20 units of Sungrow SG250HX string inverters, known for their efficiency and compatibility with bifacial modules. To further optimize performance and support the grid, the park includes a 4MW / 4.4 MWh battery storage system using Sungrow’s PowerTitan 1.0. The system is AC-coupled, allowing the solar panels and battery storage to operate independently for maximum flexibility. Mr. Fredrik Liljehov, Head of Utility at Solarwork Sverige, stated “This is one of Sweden’s first hybrid solar parks, featuring nearly 12,000 solar panels that will produce 7,000 MWh annually. We installed 20 SG250HX inverters, chosen for their ability to handle large energy loads while offering flexible installation.” Raphael Henkel, Regional Manager of Sweden and Finland at Sungrow, commented “We are delighted for our collaboration with Solarwork Sverige and Powerworks Energy. This successful completion of one of Sweden’s first hybrid solar parks highlights the growing demand for integrated PV and ESS solutions. At Sungrow, we are committed to providing innovative, high-performance technology that supports grid stability and maximizes the deployment of renewable energy. This project for Sperlingsholms Gods, is a testament to how hybrid solar and storage solutions can drive the clean energy transition forward and an example of a great partnership between the involved parties.” Sungrow’s technology was installed efficiently, meeting strict project deadlines and ensuring smooth operation. Designed for ease of use and challenging environments, these solutions helped minimize downtime and speed up commissioning. As Sweden moves toward sustainable energy, the Halmstad hybrid solar park sets a new standard, demonstrating how solar power and smart storage can create a cleaner and more resilient grid—aligning perfectly with Sungrow’s mission: “Clean power for all.” |
