Case Study: Aurinkokarhu accelerates BESS and hybrid project development with Glint Solar

Aurinkokarhu accelerates BESS layouts from weeks to minutes with Glint Solar

Aurinkokarhu, a Finnish solar project developer, faced significant challenges when pivoting to Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and hybrid projects, particularly due to strict Finnish regulations concerning noise emissions from battery sites. Traditionally, this required hiring expensive external consultants for noise studies, which added weeks of delay and thousands of euros in costs to their early-stage development process. To navigate this shifting market, they turned to Glint Solar for a solution.

By implementing Glint Solar's platform, Aurinkokarhu brought technical noise analysis and project design in-house. This allowed them to generate initial project layouts and run crucial noise simulations in minutes instead of weeks. The solution provided by Glint Solar resulted in substantial time savings and reduced consultant costs, enabling the team to scale their pipeline to nearly 10 BESS projects and approximately 1,200 MW of BESS capacity under development, thereby accelerating permitting and building investor confidence.
