Solar Installation Projects – The Path to Greater Sustainability

Solar Installation Projects – The Path to Greater Sustainability

Climate change plays a major role today, and the construction industry is tasked with finding sustainable solutions. One option is solar installations, which use renewable energy and can help reduce environmental pollution. We supported a construction project in Sengenthal where a 7.7 megawatt solar installation was realized.

Sengenthal Construction Project – Solar Installation Realized with klarx

In Sengenthal, we're working with our customer Sol in One to realize a new solar installation. For this, we provided deltaLoaders from our logistics center. A total of 7.7 megawatts are currently being deployed. Here's an exclusive look with spectacular drone footage:

3 Benefits of Solar Installations

Solar energy is of great importance to the construction industry, as it enables not only a completely different relationship between built and natural environments, but also contributes significantly to improving the environmental and climate balance of construction projects. The key benefits are as follows:

1. Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Solar energy is a clean, renewable energy source that produces no harmful greenhouse gases and thus helps reduce the carbon footprint of buildings and infrastructure.

2. Lower Energy Demand

By using solar energy, a building's energy requirements can be reduced, as solar energy can cover part or even all of a building's energy needs. This reduces not only energy consumption but also the associated costs.

3. Supporting the Energy Transition

The use of solar energy is an important part of the energy transition, which aims to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and shift energy supply to renewable sources. Solar energy is one of the most important renewable energy sources and thus plays a crucial role in implementing the energy transition.

Challenges for Construction Companies in Implementing Solar Installations

Supply chain bottlenecks and rising raw material prices are causing production delays in construction equipment as well. For solar builders, the problem is particularly acute when it comes to deltaLoader availability. These construction machines often require sourcing from multiple suppliers, which means increased coordination and time investment. Additionally, permits play a role: construction companies must obtain the necessary permits from local authorities when installing solar systems. This can be a time-consuming and complex process that delays construction progress. It can sometimes take several years before a construction project actually starts, which impedes the achievement of climate targets.

In summary, solar installations have great potential to help make the construction industry greener. They can help reduce CO2 emissions, save costs, increase independence from external power suppliers, and improve a company's image. However, there are also challenges, such as higher costs, technical difficulties, and limited availability of required construction equipment, such as deltaLoaders. This is where klarx comes in.

klarx's nationwide rental network guarantees availability of any construction equipment you need. Projects of any scale are reliably realized. Instead of time-consuming coordination with multiple suppliers, renting construction equipment and job site setup from a single source makes life much easier for solar builders.
