Wind Farm A16

Fourteen new wind turbines have been operating along the A16 in Noord-Brabant since 2022. For this project, BT Engineering (BTE) commissioned by a partnership of four clients, fully developed, tendered and supervised the civil infrastructure during design and implementation. The project was characterized by a strict planning, diverse soil conditions and a complex stakeholder structure.

Our approach

BTE took care of the entire civil engineering part of the tender. That began with the technical development of the request, with a great deal of attention paid to:

Design of access roads and crane installation sites, determined by soil conditions per location
Uniform tender documents that, despite the divergent interests of four clients, still formed on clear request.
Selection of a suitable contractor, together with partners Ecovolt and Omniplan

During the implementation we guided the contractor with the further engineering and implementation including:

Review and validation of field tests on the crane installation sites
Technical consultation and optimalisation of design choices

Thanks to intensive coordination and clear technical frameworks, a well-constructible and future-proof civil design was achieved.

despite complex project structure: Successful tender within a tight time frame
tailored to local geotechnical variation: Technical robust designs
from design to delivery: Stable implementation support

Why BTE

BTE combines substantive technical knowledge with process power. In this project we proved how you can stay on course in a multidisciplinary setting with multiple clients without losing technical depth. We think ahead in the design, create clear frameworks for market parties and remain involved until the work is finished.
