4 FAQs about [Fiji Battery Energy Storage Project]

How can Fiji improve energy security?

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.

Why should Fiji invest in solar power?

By harnessing the abundant solar resources of the region, this project aligns with Fiji’s national target of achieving 100% renewable electricity and its international commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 30% by 2030, thus improving living standards, health outcomes, job creation, climate resilience and food security.

Where is Fiji's New solar plant located?

This new solar plant is situated at the Mua Research Centre in the north of Taveuni, an international centre for palm and coconut research owned by the Fijian Government and is poised to bolster the island’s existing generation capacity.

What is Taveuni solar & battery?

It is the first large-scale grid export solar and battery solution to be deployed in the country, providing the benefit that the battery system can stabilise the grid when sun days are low. It also saves on diesel generation that has been used to deliver electricity to the Taveuni grid in the past – cutting emissions in the process.
