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.
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%.
energy storage system, was undertaken by Solar Pacific Pristine Power, a privately owned company. The plant will provide approximately 20 per cent of Palau's power needs, delivering up to 23,000 megawatt hours per year to the grid network, reducing Palau's reliance on expensive diesel generators.
The optimal system includes the current power system together with additional renewable capacity coupled with battery storage. The results of the optimisation show that Palau's current power system is dominated by diesel generation, with renewable energy only taking a small share (just 4%).
As island nations grapple with climate change, Palau has emerged as a pioneer in adopting wind and solar energy storage solutions. The recent launch of its hybrid power station bidding program marks
