Feasibility studies, design and supervision of implementation of PV installations, charging infrastructure and flexibility at AZ Zeno
INGENIUM assisted in the development of several PV installations at the AZ-Zeno hospital in Knokke. For AZ-Zeno, it was crucial to integrate sustainability into their operational infrastructure and INGENIUM supported them at every step with expertise and dedication.
At the initial stage, INGENIUM took care of the implementation of a 335 kWp rooftop PV installation that reduced dependence on the conventional energy grid. When the energy crisis struck, we urgently took care of the supervision of an additional 490 kWp PV installation on the additional free roofs.
Recently, INGENIUM took care of a design with corresponding feasibility for a ground-mounted installation of 1522 kWp as well as a PV installation of 1100 kWp on a newly built carport. After realization of the latter 2 projects, the total PV production capacity of the site will reach 3.45 MW.
With in-depth knowledge and customized solutions, we help the hospital become more sustainable and position itself as a forerunner in green energy.
In addition to the implementation of additional PV, charging infrastructure has been installed under the new carport structure. This involved the installation of 24 charging points in a current phase, with additional infrastructure for 22 additional charging points (up to and including cabling). A smart-steering system has also been devised that responds to the production of renewables on the site, takes into account the infrastructure on the site and the different prices on the electricity markets. A distinction was made between the different types of users (staff, visitors, etc.) to meet everyone's needs. Finally, we investigated how to optimally valorize the comfort power when not in use. The choice was made to use it for grid-supported services (mFRR) for Elia. The safety of the hospital also remains monitored in this way so that it is always given priority over external services.
Ingenium was involved from A to Z in both the concept determination, drafting of the engineering file and tender, and site follow-up. The PV installations, charging infrastructure and flexibility solutions have been provisionally delivered anno 2025.
