Nauru Solar

The Republic of Nauru is an island of just 21 square kilometres, with more than 9,500 citizens, that is highly dependent on imported fossil fuels for transport and power generation. The 500kW solar PV plant bolsters energy resilience by contributing electricity to the national grid.

Nauru: Solar Power Development Project

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

5 FAQs about [Nauru el panel solar]

Who will implement solar project in Nauru?

The executing agency will be the Department of Finance and Sustainable Development. The implementing agency for solar component of project will be the Nauru Utilities Corporation (NUC). NUC will establish a project management unit within their existing organisational structure to implement the project.

How will ADB support the Nauru solar power development project?

ADB also provided GoN support to prepare a Feasibility Study for the recommended Nauru Solar Power Development Project which will comprise of a 6 megawatt PV plant coupled with a 5 megawatt / 2.5 megawatt-hour battery energy storage system coupled with a SCADA installation.

How will Nauru's solar power system work?

The system will be fully integrated and automated with the existing diesel generation (17.9 MW installed capacity currently manually operated) to optimize solar energy use, to enable optimal BESS charging/discharging and to provide optimal shut off of the diesel engines. This will reduce Nauru’s over reliance on diesel for power generation.

What is a Nauru power expansion plan?

The electrical network comprises 11kV, 3.3KV and LV overhead lines. Asian Development Bank (ADB) provided Government of Nauru (GoN) a transactional technical assistance TRTA to prepare a Nauru power expansion plan. The plan identified that a PV array and battery energy storage system should be constructed.

Is Nauru Utilities Corporation a good company?

In particular, Nauru Utilities Corporation has a well-functioning procurement unit. They have participated in ADB funded Tenders for Power Generation Units, and regularly invite goods and works bids through Tenderlink.
