Naju Sports Park

Project Context

The project examined a local sports and infrastructure site where the integration of renewable generation into an existing load profile was to be assessed.

The central question was how generation, consumption and operational constraints could be aligned in order to increase local self-consumption and maximize the utilization of renewable energy.

Key Questions

• What share of PV generation can be absorbed by the local load profile?
• How do operating schedules and usage patterns influence the optimal system design?
• Which technical constraints need to be considered when integrating PV into the existing infrastructure?
• What role do self-consumption, curtailment and potential storage options play?

Key Insights

The assessment highlighted that the technical attractiveness of a PV solution depends strongly on the temporal interaction between generation and consumption.

Particularly at sites with distinct usage profiles, a purely capacity-based assessment is insufficient. The key factor is how closely generation and demand coincide in time and which operational strategies are available.
