Engineering, Procurement & Construction EPC (Engineering, Procurement & Construction) in photovoltaics translates to a set of business practices and services which cover all stages in the realization of a photovoltaic plant and manage all the logistics and business and engineering aspects of the plant building process.
Solar EPC is often preferred over other models, such as the design-bid-build approach, where separate contractors handle design, procurement, and construction. Unlike the design-bid-build model, which involves multiple contracts and points of responsibility, the EPC model provides a single point of contact throughout the project lifecycle.
The lifecycle of a solar EPC project typically includes the following stages: Discussing project goals, assessing site suitability, and planning the overall approach. Creating detailed designs, technical specifications, and obtaining necessary permits. Sourcing and purchasing materials, managing suppliers, and ensuring cost-effectiveness.
EPC Contracts will not provide for the handover of the solar facility to the Project Company, and the PPA will not become effective until all commissioning and reliability trialling has been successfully completed.
Choosing the Solar EPC model offers several advantages: Streamlined Process: By managing engineering, procurement, and construction under one contract, the EPC model simplifies project management. Stakeholders benefit from a single point of responsibility, reducing the complexity of coordinating multiple contractors.
EPC projects that are also known as ‘turnkey’ and as the contractor assumes responsibility for engineering services, procurement of materials, hiring of teams and materials, and execution of the work, among other tasks, to deliver the project ready to be operated by the client by a given deadline and with a number of guarantees.
