Solar Park in Strängnäs, Sweden

One of Sweden´s largest solar parks is located in Strängnäs, in the region of Södermanland. The solar park is owned by HSB Housing Cooperative in Södermanland. The photovoltaics provide the housing cooperative and its residents with electricity that reduces the climate impact of electricity production. The solar cell plant is 35 hectares, has 41 600 solar panels, and an electricity production capacity of 13,000,000 kWh per year, which corresponds to an annual use of electricity in 5000 apartments.

EnergiEngagemang Sverige AB was commissioned to install the solar park together with HSB. The company is one of Sweden’s leading solar cell installers of large-scale solar energy on roofs and ground. EnergiEngagemang is a project developer, they install and sell turnkey solar energy facilities throughout Sweden and has been a part of AxSol since July 2021. The company is specialized in agriculture, industry, and real estate installations and is independent of suppliers, which means that you can work to find the best product solutions on the market.

In the selection of products for the solar park in Strängnäs, LAPP was commissioned to deliver qualitative labelling with the right approvals. One of the criteria for safe, secure, and sustainable identification of photovoltaic systems is UV-resistance. The solar cell park has FLEXIMARK® cable marking Flexiprint TF3 and Cablelabel PUR mounted, and FLEXIMARK® TA component labels.

It took 20 weeks to complete HSB solar park. The project started in April 2020 with, among other things, piling and cabling and after that the assembly work continued with the installation of solar panels and all cables could also be connected. Due to Corona the delivery of the transformer stations was delayed until August and the electrical work could then be completed. The solar cell park was connected to the network in September 2020.

HSB solar park has in total 41 600 solar panels and 104 inverters. 400 solar panels are connected to each inverter. 14 294 meters of AC cable connects the inverters to the substations and 1,250 meters of high-voltage cable connects the substations to the mains.
