50MW Solar Farm Delivery

The capability stack for designing and delivering a 50MW utility-scale ground-mount solar farm. Civils, structural mounting, DC + AC electrical, grid connection, ICP coordination. UK-specific framework aligned to MCS + DNO requirements.

Pricing model

Buy the full capability stack, or a single discipline slice.

Full Package = all 6 slices + curator-assembled coordination content + lead validator support. Single slice = one discipline for specialist firms. 2-3 slice bundles negotiated case-by-case.

What's inside

6 discipline slices · all chartership-validated · paired entries throughout.

Utility-scale solar is forecast to triple in UK deployment by 2030. Current capacity is concentrated in 4-5 specialist developers who emerged from the early ROC era. Mid-sized civil and electrical firms wanting to enter typically lack the grid-connection expertise that determines project bankability. This Package gives them the structured capability transfer.

The six slices

Each slice is individually purchasable for specialist firms. Premium slices (Technical Interfaces — coordination knowledge) command higher pricing because the knowledge is structurally rarer.

  • Civil

    Site preparation, drainage at 50-200 hectare scale, access tracks, ecological + biodiversity compliance. Less heavy than urban civils but bigger in area.

    Wide-area site preparationSuDS at 100+ ha scaleInternal access tracksBNG complianceShared-use landowner interface

Why this matters · two buyer states

Same product. Different urgency.

If you're growth-seeking

The alternative growth path

UK utility-scale solar is dominated by 4-5 developers who built capability through the 2011-2017 ROC era. New entrants face a knowledge moat — particularly around grid connection and DNO interaction. This Package levels that moat for mid-sized civil + electrical firms.

Built for: Mid-sized civil and electrical contractors (£10-50M revenue) wanting to enter utility-scale solar delivery — and renewable energy developers in adjacent sub-sectors (wind, battery storage) wanting to add solar capability.

If you're pivoting under pressure

Before administration · the survival pivot

Traditional civils contractor whose primary sector (retail park / supermarket pad builds, public-sector school refurb, mid-rise residential groundworks) has contracted significantly since 2022. Utility-scale solar is forecast to triple by 2030 with current deployment dominated by 4-5 incumbent developers. Your existing site-prep + civils + access track skills are 70% of what solar needs. This Package gives you the grid-connection knowledge that determines bankability — the slice the incumbents protect.

UK construction administration counts have been elevated since 2022. EngTree Packages exist for firms that need to pivot 90 days before they hit the cliff, not 18 months after.

We'll introduce you to firms with the rest.

Stage 2: when multiple firms buy complementary slices of the same Project Package, EngTree's matchmaking algorithm flags the pair as a candidate joint-venture or bid-team match. The platform becomes the discovery layer for JV opportunities previously gated by network or geography.
