Requirements for the plot for SPP

For SPP to work efficiently, a land plot for the solar power plant must comply with the following norms:

• electrical transmission lines located in the accessibility zone;
• planned capacity corresponding to the area of the plot;
• absence of shading objects;
• the maximum possible flat terrain;
• high rate of solar energy — insolation (is typical for the whole territory of Ukraine).

The planned plot for a solar power plant should not belong to the lands of agricultural designation. State bodies will not allow to build the SPP on the territory related to the forest or water fund, in reserves and areas of historical or cultural value. It is allowed to build power plant in lands of industrial designation but will have to do allotment preliminary.

Features of registration of land for SPP

Obtaining plots for the construction of a solar power plant for rent is possible only after coordination with the local community (the decision is made at a general meeting of residents of a nearby settlement). Coordination documents from the Institute of Land Management and the Department of Cultural Heritage are also needed.

The contractor of investor needs to submit a plan with a condition of SPP location to the urban planning department. It is approved at a meeting of the local council. Further, the project design documentation must be submitted for assessment to the expert commission of the regional State Agency for Land Resources. If everything is all right — the cadastral number will be assigned to the plot and the land for rent for solar panels will be available to the investor: he will receive the right to form the contract.

Considering the routine procedure, it is easier to buy land for SPP with ready-made documents and created conditions for construction. When choosing the prepared plot, must be considered:

• the planned capacity of the SPP. A 1 MW power plant needs 2-3 ha;
• nearby ETL (needed to transport the electricity received);
• availability of access roads.
