HOME / Maximizing Green Energy Wind Solar Hybrid - EXIT-LYON Energy
In a pioneering effort for the Pacific region, Sunergise International subsidiary Clay Energy, in collaboration with the Fiji Government and funded by the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA), spearheaded the establishment of a groundbreaking 1MW grid-connected solar photovoltaic farm coupled with a battery energy storage system (BESS) on Taveuni, the third-largest island in Fiji.
These are mainly mini/micro hydro schemes, solar energy for lighting (solar home systems), water pumps, solar hot water system, solar video, television, refrigeration and steam plant for drying copra etc. The DOE has also installed numerous wind monitoring stations at selected sites in Fiji to assess the potential for wind power generation.
Grid-connected photovoltaic (GCPV) system is gaining momentum in Fiji and there are about 1.7 MW of GCPV and mini off-grid solar PV systems installed. 3.1.2. Wind energy FDoE has set up wind monitoring stations at various locations in Fiji where there was a potential of good wind regime.
By harnessing the abundant Fijian sunshine, we aim to power our pristine Fijian paradise with clean renewable solar energy for generations to come, thereby reducing Fiji's reliance on expensive and polluting diesel generation for electricity.
The $A21 million project is expected to generate enough electricity to transition 14,000 Fijian households to solar energy and will dramatically reduce Fiji's reliance on imported fossil fuels. Currently, approximately 45% of Fiji's power needs are supplied through fossil fuels, 50% through hydropower, and the remaining 5% from biomass and wind.
From 2012 to 2014 in Fiji, projects concerning solar PV have received external funds totaling of USD2.334 million . Funds have also been received in the past to carry out low carbon tourism in Fiji and for review of the national energy policy.
Currently hydro power accounts for a large proportion of Fiji's renewable energy generating. However, scaling up other renewable energy technologies, such as solar, would diversify state's energy mix and thereby help improve energy security.

[PDF Version]Although Iran was the leader in the MENA region with regard to power generation from wind energy with 92 MW installed capacity in 2010 (Farfan and Breyer 2017), it has experienced flat growth in recent years. However, 27 MW of installed wind power capacity was added to the system in 2014 (Farfan and Breyer 2017).
In terms of storage, the low installed capacities can be explained by the fact that Iran has a high availability of RE sources, particularly wind energy, solar PV and hydropower, which can produce electricity all-year-round (Fig. 6). The total storage capacities soar from 9.7 TWh in the country-wide scenario to 110.9 TWh in the integrated scenario.
However, 27 MW of installed wind power capacity was added to the system in 2014 (Farfan and Breyer 2017). Solar power generation has seen high growth in recent years, mainly through photovoltaics (PV) and followed by concentrating solar thermal power (CSP) plants in Iran.
The potential for PV is extremely high in Iran, mainly due to having about 300 clear sky sunny days per year on two-thirds of its land area and an average 2200 kWh solar radiation per square meter (Najafi et al. 2015).
Natural gas has been the main energy resource in Iran so far with a share of 60% of total primary energy consumption in 2013, following by oil with 38%, hydropower with 1–2%, and a marginal contribution of coal, biomass and waste, nuclear power and non-hydro renewables (BP Group 2014; EIA 2015).
Besides, the installation of wind turbines in windy regions of the country, constructing wind farms, and distributed small-scale and centralized PV plants are already profitable in numerous regions in Iran (Ghobadian et al. 2009; Alamdari et al. 2012; Aguilar et al. 2015).
