SAIGERI / GRID CONNECTION
From generation
to the wider grid.
Explore the infrastructure that connects a solar project to the electricity network.
A connected energy system
- 01
Plant collection
Electrical circuits collect output from the solar generation equipment.
- 02
Transformation
Transformers adjust voltage for the next stage of the electrical network.
- 03
Grid interface
Protection, metering and connection equipment support the network interface.
Conceptual sequence only; this is not an approved single-line diagram.
Published connection information
The original project overview refers to an interconnection at Kimuka Substation using a loop-in, loop-out arrangement. Such an arrangement connects into an existing line through incoming and outgoing circuits.
The original pages contain different voltage references. A single voltage is therefore not presented here as the current approved design. The latest connection agreement and engineering drawings should resolve the connection basis.
Documents to request
- Approved single-line diagram and connection voltage.
- Grid study results and the agreed connection scope.
- Protection, metering, control and communications requirements.
- Responsibilities, approvals and the delivery programme for connection works.
