Grid and transmission issues in South America are driving the growth of solar-plus-storage projects, such as the Oasis de Atacama in Chile. Image: Grenergy. Analyst Wood Mackenzie has forecast the addition of 160GW of new solar PV capacity by 2034 in South America in a recent report. [pdf]
The South Tarawa Renewable Energy Project (STREP) aims to install solar photovoltaic and battery energy storage systems to help the government of Kiribati achieve its renewable energy targets. This project will reduce diesel fuel consumption for power generation and mitigate climate change by avoiding greenhouse gas emissions through clean renewable energy2. Additionally, it includes innovative floating photovoltaic systems to enhance power generation and contribute to a low-carbon energy sector4. The project also focuses on building institutional capacity for inclusive renewable energy development1. [pdf]
