Solar arrays paired with a battery yard that stores the afternoon peak and sends it back to the grid after sunset.
Battery containers, inverters and transformers arrived from different factories on different ships, and every delay rippled through installation. The battery yard needed fire separation, controls integration and utility witness testing. The solar field covered open ground where heat and wind set the working hours as much as the schedule did.
The approach.
- 01
Procurement tracked like the field
Each container, inverter and transformer was tracked from factory to pad in the schedule, with float measured in delivery days.
- 02
Pads ready ahead of deliveries
Foundations and underground conduit for the battery yard were finished early, so containers were set straight off the truck.
- 03
Arrays built in blocks
Piling, racking, modules and wiring crews moved through the field block by block in a steady rhythm.
- 04
Controls tested before the utility
Charge and discharge sequences were run in-house before witness testing, so the utility saw a system that already worked.
The outcome.
“On a storage job, the critical path runs through a shipping container. We watched every one of them across the ocean.”
