Grün leben GmbH offers a complete range of solar energy services, from feasibility study through to turnkey installation. Our experts support you professionally and independently in every phase of your PV project.

OUR SER V ICES CONSULTING AND FEASIBILITY STUDIES: During the feasibility stage, our goal is to determine if your project is buildable and financeable. Working with our professionals can save you development capital later on. ENGINEERING AND DESIGN: Our engineers specify every element of your PV system, this includes: • Type and quantity of Solar Modules • Size and quantity of inverters • Associated AC and DC feeders • Accurate estimate of potential energy production • Short circuit and available fault current analysis of DC system • Cost Estimating SOURCING AND PROCUREMENT: We believe in a holistic approach to procurement which means pricing is only part of our analysis. We look very closely at the total return and risk profile including: price, payment terms, warranty terms, provider balance sheet, and technical specifications. CONSTRUCTION SUPERVISION: We provide you with professional construction supervision, specifically tailored to safeguard the successful completion of your project. Our highly experienced personnel can effectively control and supervise every aspect of your construction work.

As an independent third-party, we can help you: • Gain an experienced team of experts, placed on site, to implement and execute your project effectively and in-line with Project Management Institute guidelines • Keep your construction project on schedule, reduce technical risks and prevent construction errors through our continuous supervision • Comply with the relevant regulations, quality standards and insurance company guidelines • Ensure all work conforms to the specified technical documentation and the construction permit • Complete and issue all documents, certificates and declarations correctly. OPERATION & MAINTENANCE: Our O&M Services include: • Preventive, predictive, and corrective maintenance • Long-term maintenance planning with equipment manufacturers • Creation and update of technical training and PERFORMANCE TESTING procedures • System testing and project approvals in accordance • Emergency response with IEC 62446 / DIN EN 62446 (VDE 0126-23) • Field telemetry testing and calibration • Performance tests on the basis of IE C 61724, yield analysis and optimization • Module examination, characteristic measurements, mobile laboratory tests PSTC / EL / IR, IR thermography • PV system certification • Preservation of evidence- and damage assessment for insurance companies, public institutions, courts.

CONCENTRATED SOLAR POWER SYSTEMS Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) systems are characterized by focusing solar radiation with the help of reflectors onto a receiver, where the radiation is absorbed and transferred to heat. A heat transfer fluid (HTF) carries the heat from the receiver to a heat engine, i.e., a steam or gas turbine, connected to an electrical power generator. CSP is a unique form of solar energy because it can serve as a baseload power source, just like a coal or natural gas combined-cycle power plant, generating electricity on a 24-hour cycle. CSP can also serve as a flexible source of electricity by providing electricity when needed; it can accompany photovoltaic or wind power, just like a natural gas simple-cycle power plant, to assist in power generation when the sun isn’t shining or when winds are calm. CSP plants can provide this service because they convert the sun’s rays into thermal energy, allowing for it to be easily and inexpensively stored for later use. This makes it possible for solar energy to power our lives whenever that power may be needed.
