Independent power producer GoldenPeaks Capital has completed the connection of its two main solar projects, located in Bodroghalom and Nyékládháza, to the Hungarian electricity grid. This strategic step aims to strengthen the supply capacity of renewable electricity while bringing new volumes to the Hungarian electricity market.

Two major sites for solar generation

The Zemplén Solar Park Kft. plant, operational since March 2025 near Bodroghalom, has an installed capacity of 64.56 MWp and generates around 94.6 GWh per year. This facility contributes to national grid system services, including the automatic Frequency Restoration Reserve (aFRR). The site was completed in partnership with Faerch Group through a long-term power purchase agreement, consolidating its commercial stability.

The annual output of the plant supplies more than 30,000 people each year. According to projections, the operation over its full lifecycle should prevent over 860,000 tonnes of COâ‚‚ emissions.

Tracking technologies and bifacial modules

The Bodroghalom facility is equipped with a single-axis solar tracking system and bifacial modules, enabling optimisation of solar irradiation capture. The execution period extended from spring 2024 to spring 2025, covering permitting, construction, and commissioning, despite complex soil conditions and difficult winter weather.

At Nyékládháza, the group’s second solar plant has a total installed capacity of 27.556 MWp. The first block, connected between February and June 2025, delivers the electricity produced to the spot market and also contributes to grid stability through the aFRR market.

Optimised grid integration and asset management

The Nyékládháza site is connected to an existing 132/22 kV substation, ensuring efficient injection at the 22 kV level. The plant targets annual production of 40 GWh, equivalent to the consumption of 13,000 people, and is expected to prevent more than 367,000 tonnes of CO₂ over its lifetime.

Spectris, the local subsidiary dedicated to engineering, maintenance and asset management, operates and maintains both sites. This organisation oversees operations from construction through long-term management to ensure the performance and availability of the facilities.

GoldenPeaks Capital’s founder and chairman, Adriano Agosti, praised the involvement of teams and partners during the commissioning of the two plants. The company has established itself on the Hungarian power purchase agreement market with the signing of a twelve-year physical agreement with Faerch Group in 2024.
