Engineering & construction of photovoltaic project
Générale du Solaire possesses all the in-house expertise required to build solar power plants and deliver turnkey solutions.
Générale du Solaire has all the necessary know-how for engineering and constructing photovoltaic power plants in-house. These skills allow it to deliver “turnkey” any type of photovoltaic installation: ground-mounted photovoltaic systems (mounted on fixed structures or equipped with solar trackers), rooftop-integrated photovoltaic systems built on existing or new construction (sheds, greenhouses, parking carports, etc.) and hybrid power plants (on grid or off-grid power plants connected to generators).
The engineers, project managers and the procurement department are in constant coordination and work in close collaboration, from the preliminary engineering phase through to commissioning, so that each stage is controlled and optimized according to the specific constraints of each project.
Photovoltaic engineering office
To be able to technically design any type of photovoltaic power plants and to propose innovative solutions for storage and self-consumption, GÉNÉRALE DU SOLAIRE has chosen to establish its own in-house engineering office.
- Technical feasibility studies
- Power plants layout and construction plans
- Technical studies (single line diagrams, technical and structural analysis)
- Technological choices
- Electrical production assessments
Its missions is to achieve the best technical, economic and environmental performance of a solar project.
Construction of photovoltaic power plant
Each solar power plant construction project is coordinated and supervised by a project manager. This approach allows GÉNÉRALE DU SOLAIRE to manage every aspect of a solar power plant construction project.
- Earthworks and foundations
- Procurement, supply and delivery of photovoltaic modules
- Supply of pre-built technical buildings and mounting structures
- Roofing work and integration systems
- Installation of photovoltaic modules
- Monitoring system installation
- Performance tests
Our project managers, who work in close collaboration with our in-house engineering office, share the same objectives: competitiveness, cost and time optimization, quality, innovation and environmental care.
Photovoltaic procurement & logistics
Thanks to an experienced procurement and logistics department, GÉNÉRALE DU SOLAIRE carefully selects national and international suppliers that meet its requirements and with whom it creates true partnerships.
- Technological choices adapted to each project
- High quality equipment
- Purchasing costs control
- Logistics costs control
- Reliable delivery schedules
The procurement and logistics service provides our customers and partners with a suitable choice of equipment and suppliers, while keeping the costs under control and optimizing the time constraints.
