Project Citronex reaches key milestones across multiple disciplines

Over the past period, project Citronex has achieved significant progress across technical, mechanical, electrical, and civil construction activities, marking important milestones in the project’s realization.

A major achievement has been the successful commissioning of the boiler. With this key component now operational, an essential part of the project’s energy and heat supply infrastructure is in place. In addition, the medium-voltage side of the four lighting transformers has been connected, providing a crucial foundation for the further rollout of the lighting installations and bringing the electrical infrastructure closer to full operational readiness.

On the installation side, work has commenced on the 40 gutter-growing installations. As one of the larger project components, this marks the start of a substantial implementation phase, with further installation activities now underway.

Civil construction progress is equally visible. The first concrete pours for the floors have been completed, representing a critical stage in the development of the greenhouse facility. These works provide the foundation for the next phases of construction and fit-out, clearly marking the transition into the subsequent stages of the project.

Further important milestones include the commissioning of the insect screens and the lifting heating system. These installations play a key role in both crop protection and the overall functionality and operability of the greenhouse.

In addition, the first units have been moved into the 5.000m² water technical area, a tangible milestone demonstrating that this part of the project has also entered the execution phase.

The progress across these various work streams highlights the close coordination between multiple disciplines working simultaneously on site. Together, these developments demonstrate that Project Citronex continues to move steadily forward toward its next phases of realization.
