Solar Power Plant Construction
Turnkey EPC Solutions for Utility-Scale and Industrial Solar Projects
Overview
Solar Power Plants are among the most reliable and scalable renewable energy investments, providing clean electricity with low operational costs and long asset lifetimes. Mechasol delivers end-to-end Solar Power Plant Construction services, covering engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning (EPC) for utility-scale and industrial solar power projects.
Based on Mechasol’s power plant construction experience, solar projects are approached as integrated engineering systems, not merely panel installations. Each project is engineered to maximize energy yield, ensure grid compliance, and achieve long-term operational reliability.
Engineering & Design Basis
Solar power plant engineering begins with a detailed site and resource assessment, including:
Solar irradiation and climate analysis
Topographical and geotechnical surveys
Grid connection conditions and utility requirements
Environmental and regulatory constraints
Using these inputs, Mechasol develops:
Optimized plant layout
Electrical single line diagrams (SLD)
DC/AC sizing philosophy
Loss analysis (thermal, mismatch, shading, inverter losses)
The design philosophy prioritizes maximum specific yield (kWh/kWp) while ensuring constructability and ease of maintenance.
Photovoltaic Technology Selection
Mechasol supports a wide range of PV technologies, selected based on project conditions and client objectives:
Monocrystalline PV modules for high efficiency
Bifacial modules for enhanced yield on reflective surfaces
Fixed-tilt mounting systems for simplicity and robustness
Single-axis tracking systems for utility-scale maximum energy production
Technology selection is supported by yield simulations and lifecycle cost analysis to ensure optimal return on investment.
Civil & Structural Works
Civil construction is a critical component of solar power plant performance and durability. Mechasol’s scope includes:
Site grading and drainage systems
Foundation works for mounting structures (pile driving or concrete foundations)
Access roads and equipment platforms
Control room and inverter station foundations
Structural systems are designed to withstand:
Wind and snow loads
Seismic conditions
Long-term corrosion and environmental exposure
