Developed by Renew Power Group, Peterborough Solar Farm is a 5.6 MW facility located in Peterborough, South Australia. The clean power station consists of 15,624 Trina Solar panels mounted on NEXTracker single-axis tracking system and SMA inverters.
This medium-scale project comprising 194 trackers was installed by DRASOL in two working weeks, equating to a 30% time-saving in the client’s mechanical construction programme.
Our highly flexible and multi- skilled personnel were able to react and adapt to the variances in task brought about by this condensed build schedule, maintaining efficiency whilst continuing to deliver a quality product.
DRASOL also installed the PV modules on this project, and by working under the framework of our internal QA system offered a turnkey solution requiring minimal input from the client.
The challenges of working in a relatively isolated location were negated by our extensive remote support capabilities, as we have a suite of spare tooling packages and OEM- trained mechanics to service and repair our specialist Huck tooling on site.
