3,500MW Solar PV

The Terra Solar Project will deploy the latest bifacial N-type TOPCon photovoltaic (PV) modules with higher power ratings, promising improved efficiency, and extending daytime solar power generation. The project will include a ground mounted galvanized steel structure with a fixed tilt and PV module with South facing orientation, initially optimized to a 9-degree tilt and a 7.5-meter pitch, achieving a ground coverage ratio (GCR) of 0.3 which minimizes the energy yield losses.

4,500MWhr Battery Energy Storage System

The Terra Solar Project is building a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) composed of: a) Battery Containers for storing DC energy; b) Storage Inverters to convert energy interchangeably between DC and AC; c) Power Transformers to elevate voltage from low to medium levels; and d) Power Conversion Systems for transforming DC power to AC.

This BESS will feature multiple battery containers and power  conversion systems, offering a total rated power of 1,125 MW and an energy storage capability of 4,500 MWhr, enabling nearly 4 hours of discharge. Each battery container contains parallel connected battery racks managed by an Energy Management System (EMS). The EMS is tasked with estimating the state of charge, overseeing the charge/discharge process, and managing the system’s status, which includes temperature control, safety measures, and communication with other BESS components.

13.8 KM 500kV Transmission Line

The Terra Solar Project is developing a 500kV Transmission Line over a 13 km route with 89 towers, utilizing 4-410 mm² Thermal Resistant Aluminum Alloy Conductors Steel Reinforced (TACSR) per phase. This line will initially connect to the existing 500 kV Nagsaag-San Jose NGCP Transmission Line and eventually link to the upcoming 500 kV Nagsaag-Marilao Transmission Line. The project also involves constructing a 500kV/230kV Main Substation, a 230 kV/34.5 kV Main Collector Substation, and two 230 kV/34.5 kV PV Satellite Substations, which are critical for ensuring the safe, efficient, and reliable transfer of renewable energy to the grid.

An integrated Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system supports this expansive infrastructure, allowing site operators to maintain the plant 24/7, both locally and remotely. The system includes an advanced Grid Controller built on a high availability architecture to coordinate plant responses in alignment with the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines’ (NGCP) requirements.
