VEL is committed to the communities we serve. Fostering initiatives including sponsoring workforce development programs and planting pollinator habitats at our solar projects, VEL strives to be a good neighbor and give back to the communities where our projects are located
VEL commits to on-time and on-budget projects to the nation’s largest utilities. It continues to build on its unmatched performance of safe and efficient construction of solar projects
Once a site has been identified as a potential location for solar development, we work with the landowners on leases or purchase agreements.
Planning a site involves a great deal of due diligence, from surveys and environmental impact reports, to engineering and zoning research and applications. Environmental and cultural studies, utility interconnection, and commercial agreements to sell the power are all major milestones that must be achieved before construction can begin.
Preparing a solar farm for construction is typically the work of the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction group. The EPC team creates civil, electrical and structural plan and orders the necessary equipment. Once in construction, the team oversees contractor hiring, schedules and budget.
After construction, the system’s electrical components are reviewed, tested and commissioned for use. Upon approval of necessary systems, a site is energized and extensive performance testing is completed.
Once a site is up and running, Operations and Maintenance oversees site performance and regular maintenance. Solar farms typically produce energy for 40 years or more.
In all stages, VEL acts in partnership with its stakeholders, government entities, landowners, offtakers and distribution companies
