Battery Park Zeewolde
For the Windpark Zeewolde BT Enigineering designed the park layout and foundations for 83 wind turbines, with n eye for the interests of farmers and logistics. Grid congestion makes energy storage crucial: that’s why a battery park is being build at the wind farm. BT Engineering helps with expertise, permits and tendering under time pressures to ensure that sustainable energy is conserved and the grid remains stable – and all that within the strict SDE-deadlines.

Our approach
BT Engineering contributed its expertise in the field of foundations, park layout and constructions to the client team. BT Engineering also drew up the requirements package of the civil engineering components of the tender and coordinated with the suppliers so that the best party would be selected to successfully deliver the project for the client.
Through the experience of BT Engineering with all phases (design/preparation/implementation) a safe and well implemented design was drawn up.
Through the use of BT Engineering in the field of permit drawings, the application could be submitted to the competent authority on time, so that there were no delays during this important point.
Thanks to BT Engineering’s flexible approach, various changes were also processed quickly.

What does it yield for our client?
Thanks to a solid design and well-considered construction phasing, the battery park was permitted on time and successfully tended. The battery setup contributes to grid stability and enables congestion management. Moreover, BT Engineering ensured a smooth tendering process with clear choices for suppliers.
Impact
The wind farm has been expanded with 90MWh of storage capacity which means it continues to operate more efficiently. Thanks to rapid processing of changes and meeting all deadlines, the implementation was completed without additional work.
