6 FAQs about [Solomon Islands Solar Grid-connected Power Generation System]

Does Solomon have a solar system?

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.

How many solar homes are there in the Solomon Islands?

“Solomon Islands currently has one of the lowest levels of access to electricity in the region, with over 85% of the population of Solomon Islands still without access to electricity and for this project alone, we received over 6,000 applications to obtain only 2,000 solar home systems,” said Mr Aimaea.

What is the power generation capacity of Solomon Islands?

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.

What is the Asian Development Bank doing in Solomon Islands?

The Asian Development Bank is working with the Government of Solomon Islands and Solomon Power to convert electricity networks in five provinces almost entirely to solar power. The project will reduce the need for costly shipments of diesel to the provincial centers. LATEST PROJECT DOCUMENTS 1.

Why is the power supply in the Solomon Islands so volatile?

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.

Is Solomon (Honiara) a good place to install solar panels?

Solomon (Honiara) has about 1.3 times the amount of solar radiation (horizontal plane) than Japan, so the environment is optimal for PV installation. Using the following calculation method, the amount of power generated annually was calculated based on this solar radiation data.
