Defying Nordic weather: How a 480KW solar system secures energy independence for Norway's national stadium

Defying Nordic weather: How a 480KW solar system secures energy independence for Norway's national stadium

The Ullevaal Stadium in Oslo utilizes a 480 kilowatt peak solar installation featuring LONGi Hi-MO X10 modules. Delivered by Solenergi FUSen, this project demonstrates the viability of large-scale commercial solar investments in northern European climates and highlights the operational benefits of reliable components for industrial stakeholders.

High-capacity modules deliver predictable energy generation for commercial operations to secure long-term stability

The installation consists of approximately 800 LONGi Hi-MO X10 panels. Each module provides 650 watts of power output, ensuring a substantial portion of the stadium's electricity demand is met through self-generation. For commercial and industrial stakeholders, utilizing available roof space translates to reduced grid reliance and predictable long-term energy costs.

Advanced back contact technology ensures consistent yields in low light environments for maximum asset utilization

Our LONGi modules use advanced back contact technology (BC) to generate maximum energy even in low light. Since there are no disruptive contacts on the front with this technology, the module captures more light. This ensures that your electrical heating element or heat pump gets enough power even on cloudy days to preheat your water and lower your heating costs. This technological advantage is highly relevant for commercial installations in regions like Oslo, where overcast days are frequent, ensuring consistent asset performance and reliable power output.

Transparent supply chains and module durability secure renewable energy investments against future compliance risks

When selecting components, Solenergi FUSen prioritized a long lifespan and clear traceability. The Hi-MO X10 modules are designed for at least 30 years of operation, providing long-term stability for commercial assets. The SDM-1 traceability standard allows stakeholders to track the value chain from polysilicon to final assembly. This fulfills strict environmental, social and governance requirements for corporate investors.

Long-term partnerships drive successful commercial energy transitions and operational excellence

The 15-year collaboration between LONGi and Solenergi FUSen demonstrates how technical expertise combined with high performance components yields successful large-scale installations. The Ullevaal Stadium project serves as a factual reference for commercial entities evaluating renewable energy integration to optimize operational expenditure and meet sustainability targets.
