Palau Solar Photovoltaic Energy Storage Project
Overview An AIFFP loan and grant package has supported Solar Pacific Pristine Power to build Palau''s first solar and battery energy storage facility, key to its transition to renewable energy.
Solar electricity will be produced by a hybrid 15.3 MWdc (13.2 MWac) solar photovoltaic (PV) plus 10.2 MWac/12.9 MWh battery energy storage system facility. Extensive safeguards to protect Palau's pristine environment SPEC did not leave any stone unturned to protect the pristine Palau ecosystem.
Palau on June 3 launched its first solar and battery energy storage system (BESS) project on Friday. The project was made possible by Renewable company Alternergy Holdings Corp. and its subsidiary Solar Pacific Energy Corporation.
As a small island developing state, the Republic of Palau sought to wean itself off its dependence on fossil fuel for power, which accounts for 99.7% of the country's power generation. To address this issue, Palau invited Solar Pacific Energy Corporation (SPEC), Alternergy's solar developer, to develop a clean, renewable energy source.
The Palau Solar Battery Project will be the largest such project in the Western Pacific. It will lessen Palau's imported fuel dependency, a major step towards its ambitious goal of 100%.
