Norwegian renewable energy company Greenstat and local company GP Toming marked the beginning of the trial operation of the Petnjik solar power plant near Grude. This is the first solar power plant in Bosnia and Herzegovina under the Greenstat brand and the company’s first foreign investment.
The solar facility is installed, including solar panels, inverters, electrical equipment, and connections to the substation and network. The construction period proceeded according to plan.
The next step will involve a trial operation before the final network connection approval, which will be achieved once it is documented that the facility is delivering electricity according to specifications. The electricity produced during the testing period will generate the company’s first revenues in September.
The Petnjik solar power plant, with an installed capacity of 45 MW and an estimated annual electricity generation of 64 GWh, is the largest solar power plant built so far in BiH.
The construction of the solar power plant started in May 2022.
