J&V Energy selects Mott MacDonald as owner's engineer for solar project in Tainan City

Mott MacDonald has been appointed by J&V Energy Technology as owner’s engineer for the development of the 123 MW Fishery Solar photovoltaic (PV) project in Tainan City, Taiwan. When complete, it would generate 180 million kilowatt-hours of electricity per year, enough power for nearly 50,000 households.

The solar PV panels will be situated above the fishponds along the Taiwan coast, maximizing the productive use of the land, and contributing to both food production and clean energy generation simultaneously. 

As owner’s engineer, Mott MacDonald will be supporting various workstreams through financial close to commercial operation, including design review, contracts review, construction supervision, commissioning support, performance testing, and substantial completion service. The construction and commissioning phase will involve a team of six Mott MacDonald engineers stationed at the site to oversee the multiple contractors involved in the project.
