Solomon Power will oversee the construction of the mini grids following a supply and install contract. These mini-grids will be owned, operated and maintained by Solomon Power, rather than community managed, as Solomon Power is better equipped to reliably operate and maintain hybridized systems.
Currently, most of the power in the Solomon Islands is dependent on diesel generated power which uses imported fuel. This volatile energy supply structure is susceptible to soaring fuel prices, and the people want it to be rectified as soon as possible.
Solomon has natural conditions suitable for solar power, and they are promoting renewable energy, but the grid-connected photovoltaic power generation system (hereinafter referred to as “grid-connected PV system”) has not been introduced.
The power generating capacity of the Solomon Islands is currently 10.2 MW, which is equal to its peak load capacity. One mining company in the Solomon Islands generates its own electricity with a power capacity of 11 MW and a peak load of 8 – 9 MW.
