6 FAQs about [Solar photovoltaic substation design scheme]

What is a solar substation?

The purpose of the substation is to collect all solar array power and feed into the grid after stepping up voltage to distribution level. This substation is based on an Arcadia design, modified for the project. Power flow is bottom to top, 34.5 kV bus to 115 kV bus. It will consist of the following major drawings (single-line drawings).

Can pvdesign design a solar substation?

As solar projects get larger, it’s common for utility companies to outsource the design of the substation. For this reason, pvDesign has launched a new feature to generate the basic engineering of some of the most common substations: line to transformer substation, single busbar substations and double busbar substations.

How do I design a 60 MW solar farm and substation?

We will design a 60 MW solar farm and substation by selecting appropriate parts and land, and then decide the most cost-effective way to combine and set up the farm. This consists of appropriately sizing solar panels, combiner boxes, and inverters, as well as necessary parts for the substation.
