Jemena
Solar/BESS for Multiple Jemena Sites (0.2MVA-1.5MVA)
Solar BESS Design and Grid App
Grid Approval Management and Detailed design 'for construction' and ‘as built’ for multiple Solar and BESS sites, 200kVA-1.5MVA.
Key Achievements:
- Grid Connection Approval Management for Jemena at multiple solar PV and BESS systems up to 1.5MVa
- Completing all required studies as required for Jemena
- Working with installer companies to optimise and design multiple commercial solar and BESS systems for construction.
- Providing technical and optimisation advice to installers.

Impact


Project Scope
- Detailed Drawing set construction including SLD, layout and schematic.
- Grid Application including discrimination protection study, protection and control report, commissioning plan, generator data, load and generation profile information.
- Backstop design to Jemena requirements
Project Details
- Solar System >200kVA in the Jemena area
- BESS System of 1MVA




Project Challenges
- Obtaining sufficient information to conduct the discrimination protection study.
- Adapting quickly when project details change, for example panel model numbers and ratings.
- Level of detail required by Jemena, for example disconnection time of diesel automatic transfer switches.
- Scheduling commissioning of grid protection relay as soon as it is ready
