An islands wide grid system operated by Bahamas Power and Light (BPL) is available on New Providence (Nassau) using a gas turbine engine while 23 islands have diesel generators with mini grids covering each island. 60% of power is generated from oil based generators.
The average cost of solar panels in Nassau is approximately $3. 04 per watt, making a typical 6000 watt (6 kW) solar system around $12,778 after claiming the 30% federal solar tax credit available.
Each system, including 5 kW panels, a 10 kWh lithium battery bank, and real-time remote monitoring, cost around USD $25,000, including shipping and installation. Let's talk about actual prices. Here are standard ballpark estimates (in USD):.
