Nauru Photovoltaic Solar Power Generation System
The Solar Power Development Project will finance (i) a grid-connected solar power plant with a capacity of 6 megawatts (MW) of alternating current; and (ii) a 2. 5-megawatt-hour, 5 MW battery energy storage system (BESS) to enable smoothing of intermittent solar energy.
FAQs about Nauru Photovoltaic Solar Power Generation System
Can solar photovoltaics be used as an energy source on Nauru?
While Nauru is currently 100% electrified by grid-distributed power, the government has considered and continues to explore the use of solar photovoltaics as an energy source. This interest was first indicated at the 1995 South Pacific Forum Meeting.
Are there solar hot water systems on Nauru?
There are only a small number of solar hot-water systems on the island, most of which are in need of substantial maintenance. Solar photovoltaics have not been used as an energy source on Nauru as the island is 100% electrified by grid-distributed power.
What are the renewable energy sources in Nauru?
The renewable energy sources in Nauru are solar radiation and a small amount of biomass. However, as the electricity is supplied from diesel generation and has been abundantly available over the past 80 years, these other renewable energy sources have not been extensively exploited.
Why is there limited interest in solar applications on Nauru?
As all energy on Nauru is provided from predominantly fossil fuels (electricity generation), there has only been a limited interest shown in solar applications. Nauru being located nearly on the equator limits the need for hot water for domestic applications.
How will Nauru Utilities Corporation benefit from project preparatory technical assistance?
The project will also support the institutional strengthening of Nauru Utilities Corporation. Project preparatory technical assistance was used to carry out project-enabling activities such as a Solar Power Expansion Plan for Nauru, project feasibility study, detailed design, and plant procurement contract bidding documents.

Who is financing a solar energy project in the Solomon Islands?
The Asian Development Bank, Saudi Fund for Development, and Solomon Power are all financing the project. A project is now underway on the Solomon Islands to help the country accelerate its renewable energy generation.
What percentage of the Solomon Islands' electricity mix is renewable?
Renewable energy only makes up 2% of the Solomon Islands' electricity mix. Image: Namkoo Solar. A group of investment firms led by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) has partnered with the government of the Solomon Islands to finance new solar PV power plants, increase rooftop solar PV installations and support the islands' power sector reforms.
How is the Solomon Islands project funded?
The project is being funded by a $10 million concessional loan and a $5 million grant from the Asian Development Bank (ADB), while the Saudi Fund for Development and state-owned Solomon Power are providing $10 million each. The government of the Solomon Islands is providing $7 million.
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.
Can a solar PV system boost economic growth in the Solomon Islands?
A pilot business model for rooftop solar PV systems will also be trialled at two schools in the country. Shane Rosenthal, ADB's Pacific liaison and coordination office regional director, believes that upscaling renewable energy generation in the Solomon Islands could help unlock economic growth and prosperity.
What does Solomon power do?
Solomon Power is the implementing agency for the Solar Power Development Project. They provide personnel for the Project Management Unit (PMU). The PMU, which is within Solomon Power, has been responsible for the procurement of all civil works and goods for the project, in accordance with ADB's Procurement Guidelines.
