In this episode of the Future of Solar Photovoltaics Podcast, Vikram Kumar speaks with Clark Frost of Heathcote Holdings about the civil engineering behind one of the UK’s largest solar infrastructure projects.
Clark shares insights from over 36 years in construction, starting with the UK’s Youth Training Scheme (YTS) and progressing into large scale infrastructure and renewable energy projects. The conversation explores the practical realities of building solar farms at hundreds of megawatts scale, including land preparation, piling, drainage and site logistics.
They discuss working on coastal alluvial ground, installing 12 metre screw piles, managing drainage across agricultural land and coordinating heavy machinery across a thousand acre construction site. The episode also covers the importance of enabling works, health and safety management and the increasing complexity of multi contractor solar developments.
As the UK moves toward much larger solar projects, this discussion highlights how solar farms are evolving into major national infrastructure, combining civil engineering, electrical systems and long term energy investment.
A rare behind the scenes look at how large scale solar farms are actually built.
