33kV Solar Farm Connection

The client required the design and delivery of a 20MVA 33kV DNO switchroom and cable route for a solar development in Staveley, Derbyshire.

THE CHALLENGES

Design approval from NGED presented a key challenge, which was addressed by working closely with the client, their contractors, and NGED to develop an acceptable design. Additionally, potentially disruptive streetworks required careful management, with the JSM Streetworks team collaborating with the local highways authority to secure permits and minimise impact on the local community.

WHAT WE DELIVERED

Supplied and installed a 33kV DNO switchroom including battery chargers and a metering room, along with 3.1km of 33kV cable duct installation, cable pulling, and jointing
