The energy storage company Leclanch\u00e9<\/a> , together with the government of the Caribbean island state of St. Kitts and Nevis and the state-owned Electric Company ( SKELEC<\/a> ), broke ground \u201cfor a groundbreaking project\u201d. As stated in a press release by<\/a> the energy storage company, the largest solar power generation and storage system in the Caribbean is to be built on 102 hectares of land owned by the government over the next 18 months. In the first year of operation, it will generate around 61,300 megawatt hours of electricity.<\/p>\n

The $ 70 million microgrid project is being built by Leclanch\u00e9. It should also represent a model project for other island states. Together with the most important subcontractor, the Spanish Grupotec<\/a> , the Valais company will provide a turnkey solar plus storage solution. Leclanch\u00e9 will operate the facility through its subsidiary SOLEC Power Ltd. as part of its strategic build, ownership and operation model. with partner Solrid Ltd. own and operate.<\/p>\n

Up until now, tankers have been delivering diesel fuel on a weekly basis. According to the announcement, Prime Minister Timothy Harris described the project as a milestone for his country, tourism, the economy and the entire Caribbean region: "This visionary project will help ensure our energy independence." Tons of \u201csave carbon dioxide emissions.<\/p>\n

Together they designed a system on site that saves SKELEC costly upfront investments, says Leclanch\u00e9 managing director Anil Srivastava: As part of a 20-year power purchase agreement, Leclanch\u00e9 will sell clean, renewable energy to SKELEC at a flat rate over this entire period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
