Aerial view of the site. Image: Solar Pacific. The Pacific island country of Palau has welcomed the commissioning of its first large-scale solar-plus-storage project, representing the largest power plant of its kind in the Western Pacific region.
Palau currently boasts 600 kilowatts (kW) of grid-connected solar energy, as compared to a daily peak demand of 9–10 MW.8 The first 6.5-kW grid-connected solar project on the Public Works Department building was funded by Japan in 2008.
The NEP set targets to reduce national energy consumption 30% by 2020 and produce a minimum of 20% of total energy from renewable sources by 2020.5 Palau initiated energy eficiency efforts to reduce governmen-tal energy use through its Energy Conservation Strategy in 2007.
installed at the Capitol Complex in 2008.13 Subsidized private financing of grid-connected solar through the National Development Bank of Palau (NDBP), initiated in 2010, has increased solar uptake in Palau.13 Several renewable energy projects have been funded by Europe, Japan, and Taiwan, among others.
The project, which is also Palau's first grid-scale solar PV plant, will contribute significantly to the country's nationally self-determined contribution to meeting global climate targets as agreed in the Paris Accord. These include reaching 35% renewable energy, and reducing energy sector emissions to 22% below 2005 levels, by 2025.
“With a project in a location as unique as the Republic of Palau, the jurisdiction itself is challenging as the project engineering codes and local requirements are very specific,” DNV energy systems project manager Michael Niu said.
