In a landmark achievement for Sweden’s renewable energy sector, the nation’s first hybrid solar park has commenced operations in Halmstad. The project, developed by Solarwork Sverige and Powerworks Energy, combines photovoltaic (PV) technology with advanced battery storage to enhance grid stability and energy efficiency. Global renewable energy leader Sungrow supplied critical components, including PV inverters and its PowerTitan 1.0 Energy Storage System (ESS), cementing the initiative as a model for future sustainable projects.
The hybrid solar park is projected to generate over 7,000 MWh of clean electricity annually, addressing peak energy demand with cost-effective solutions. The 6.6 MWp PV installation features 11,928 bifacial solar modules paired with 20 Sungrow SG250HX string inverters, optimized for high efficiency and compatibility with bifacial technology.
Carl Kuylenstierna, CEO of plant owner Sperlingsholms Gods, emphasized the project’s societal impact: "Solar energy provides a sustainable, low-cost solution for electricity generation, particularly during peak daytime hours."
To bolster grid stability, the facility integrates Sungrow’s PowerTitan 1.0 ESS, offering 4 MW / 4.4 MWh of storage capacity. The AC-coupled system allows independent operation of PV and battery systems, ensuring flexibility. Fredrik Lyckvind, CSO of Powerworks Energy, noted the system’s Nordic adaptability: "Sungrow’s 1C charging capability and liquid-cooled technology reduce operational costs and ensure reliability in harsh climates."
The project’s rapid deployment highlighted Sungrow’s engineering efficiency. Fredrik Liljehov, Head of Utility at Solarwork Sverige, praised the SG250HX inverters for their scalability and performance under heavy loads.
Raphael Henkel, Sungrow’s Regional Manager for Sweden and Finland, underscored the collaboration’s significance: "This hybrid park exemplifies how integrated PV and storage solutions accelerate the clean energy transition. Sungrow remains committed to innovations that maximize renewable deployment and grid resilience."
As Sweden advances toward its 2045 net-zero target, the Halmstad hybrid solar park demonstrates the viability of combining solar generation with intelligent storage. Aligned with Sungrow’s mission of "Clean power for all," the project sets a benchmark for sustainable energy infrastructure, reinforcing Sweden’s leadership in the global renewable energy transition.
