Maldives: Maldives Solar Power Development and Energy Storage Solution 2. Project Summary and Objectives Project Summary: The project involves the development of a 36-megawatt (MW) solar power project and 50 megawatt hours (MWh) of battery energy storage solutions across various selected islands in the Maldives.
The Maldives solar project is a 36 MW solar power project and 50 MWh of battery energy storage solutions development across various islands in the Maldives. It also includes grid modernization for the integration of variable renewable energy with the grid, which will be financed under the proposed AIIB loan.
Solar PV with storage has proven suitable and competitive for Maldives' high penetration of renewable energy (POISED type B projects), with an average fuel savings of 25%. The concept design of hybrid systems (efficient diesel generators + solar PV plants + energy storage) has resulted in success for Maldives.
