Polish photovoltaic installation companies Kajima Poland and Hymon have completed the construction of a new solar plant for a facility operated by NGK Ceramics Polska in Dąbrowa Górnicza, southern Poland.
In total, around 20,000 panels have been installed covering a total area of 51,000 sqm, alongside two transformer stations and an MV substation. The new power plant will produce 11,600 MWh of energy annually, helping NGK to achieve carbon neutrality for its automotive manufacturing activities.
Kajima Poland supervised the entire construction process, including the development of the detailed design and construction design, and secured all necessary permits for the project. Hymon was responsible for the supply and installation of the panels, inverters and substructures.
“For the construction of the photovoltaic power plant for NGK, our many years of experience in building on various soils, including rocky ones, found here proved useful. In collaboration with Hymon, we developed a customised work technology and quality assurance plan for the foundation of the structure, which reduced the execution time and associated costs by, among other things, reducing the number of holes drilled in the ground by more than 80%,” says Maciej Runkiewicz, President of Kajima Poland.
Since the beginning of its presence in Poland, Kajima Poland has successfully delivered over 150 projects, ranging from office and residential to retail and industrial developments.
