Nauru: Solar Power Development Project

project – 6 MW solar PV and BESS – and the MFAT project – 1 MW solar PV – are completed, the solar power generation will have increased from 1,180 MWh/year to 15,500 MWh/year and will represent 47% of the electricity generation mix on the island. NUC has now approached MFAT

Solar Power Development Project: Sector Assessment

The Government of Nauru has set the objective of 50% renewable energy in the grid by 2025. Currently, 807 kilowatt of photovoltaic units are installed on the island, with construction ongoing to install an additional 1.0 MWac as noted above. Nauru also has the potential for an additional 2 MW of rooftop solar availability.7 Although Nauru

Nauru 1

In 2019, ADB and the Government of Nauru had signed a USD 22 Mn grant for solar projects with an objective to deliver reliable, affordable, secure and sustainable solar energy.16 Pacific Environment Community (PEC) has invested an amount of USD 4 Mn to install a solar power generation system in Nauru. 17

Nauru Energy Sector Overview

Policy Framework both state Nauru''s aim to make 50% of energy provided through renewable energy by 2015. Solar resource measurements show an average of over 6 kWhr/m2/day with a seasonal variation of around 10-15%. A solar pre-feasibility study has shown that up to 1 MWp of solar PV could be installed without storage.

Global Solar Atlas

6 FAQs about [Nauru solar pv size]

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.

How many kV is a 1000 KW PV installation in Nauru?

A 1,000 kW PV installation is under construction. 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.

Why is Nauru so vulnerable to solar energy?

Solar energy is the only proven renewable energy resource which could be utilised in short to medium term to reduce dependency on fuel imports for electricity generation. The country’s vulnerability is also increased by its isolation from other Pacific Islands. In 2012, SPC released an energy profile of Nauru based on 36 energy security indicators.

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.

Does Nauru have an energy road map?

Currently Nauru is working on an Energy Road Map, including action plans for the development of renewable energy and energy efficiency sufficient to significantly lower imports of diesel fuel for electricity generation.
