GOLDBECK SOLAR is about to set a new milestone for Austrian renewable energy. The German EPC company brings together 75 MW of new solar PV with 71 MW of existing wind capacity — making it one of the largest hybrid project in Austria with its 140 GW total capacity.
But scale isn’t the only story here. The project is a technically demanding setup with nine separate parks operating across three medium-voltage grid connection points, each requiring coordinated, real-time control.
And that’s exactly where Opoura fits in. Managing a diverse mix of assets is one of our core strengths. With over 15 successful projects across Austria, we bring deep experience and local know-how. Combined with the flexibility and scalability of our master PPC, the OneView® Hybrid Control Unit, our solution is built to handle complex, multi-technology setups – making it the right choice for a project of this scale.
“This is a technically complex project – with three separate MV grid connection points and nine sub-parks across wind and solar. To succeed and bring it all together, we rely on the good collaboration gained through several projects completed with Opoura and on the scalability of their hybrid power plant controller, ” says Christian Klemt, Project Engineer, GOLDBECK SOLAR
Solving the hybrid puzzle
The project presented a mix of strategic and operational challenges:
Grid access constraints
Securing new grid capacity is increasingly difficult. Therefore, there is a need to leverage the existing wind farm connections smartly.
Stakeholder complexity
Hybrid projects involve multiple players. Keeping all parties aligned – on scope, responsibility, and timelines – is critical.
Control integration
Ensuring a seamless, unified control system for wind and solar assets across varied manufacturers and locations.
A platform engineered for hybrid environments
Opoura was selected not just for our technology but for our ability to lead complex hybrid projects with confidence and clarity:
Centralized command
The OneView® Hybrid Control Unit acts as the single control point for the entire hybrid setup, managing diverse assets across three MV grid feeds.
Full-scope delivery
With Opoura, the customer benefits from a streamlined project execution, which can minimize coordination headaches and budget overruns.
Proven expertise and experience
Taking part in more than 200 hybrid installations worldwide gives an advantage in terms of technical know-how and how to handle hiccups along the way.
The implementation is scheduled for the second half of 2025.
