ib vogt has announced that it has celebrated the successful delivery of the Scaldia solar park. With a capacity of 54.5 MWp and more than 140,000 solar panels, Scaldia is the largest solar park in the Netherlands. The official opening ceremony was held on 1 November.
The park is located in the municipalities of Borsele and Vlissingen, in the vicinity of the North Sea Port and covers an area of 38 hectares.
ib vogt acquired the permits for the solar park in February of this year from developer Solarpark Zeeland. HSH Nordbank provided EUR47 million (US$53.8 million) of project finance to Scaldia by the end of May before construction began. Following two and half years of careful and considerate preparation and permit procedures, ib vogt constructed the project in just half a year.
Energy and certificates of origin are sold to ENGIE Netherlands and marketed by Engie to its consumers under a long-term contract covering more than half the lifetime of the project. Over its 30-year lifetime, the solar park will generate 51,000 MWh of renewable energy annually, preventing 738,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions.
