Numerous activities in favor of biodiversity have been carried out in the field: Asbestos removal, limitation of invasive species, soil deartificialization, demining of the site, restoration of a mosaic of grasslands, etc. TSE has also delegated the management of grassy areas to a local sheep farmer.

Everything was respected and the roads were not damaged; there were no complaints despite the size of the construction site. The plant was due to start operations in June, and it even started a month early.

FAQs

Which types of land can ground-based power plants be installed on?

Ground-based power plants can be built on degraded or abandoned land. Other criteria are also taken into account: compliance with urban planning documents, distance to a network connection, zoning, topographic criteria, etc.

‍

How is solar energy transformed into electricity?

Photovoltaic panels capture the sun's radiation, then neutralize the electrons through their components and produce a direct electric current which is then transformed into alternating current by the inverters for common uses.

What is a photovoltaic power plant made of?

A photovoltaic power plant is composed of various elements: solar panel arrays, a transformer and delivery station, a fire tank, outdoor fences and traffic lanes.

‍

Is conservation grazing possible at my power plant?

According to the nature and condition of the soil, other activities may be possible on the site, in particular conservation grazing with sheep. It is important to note that this type of project is not the equivalent of an agrivoltaic project, however.
