Technical FAQs 4

Does Nauru have solar power?

Due to its equatorial location, Nauru has limited need for hot water, which has limited interest in solar applications. Currently, all energy on Nauru is provided from predominantly fossil fuels for electricity generation.

Are there solar hot water systems on Nauru?

There are only a small number of solar hot-water systems on the island, most of which are in need of substantial maintenance. Solar photovoltaics have not been used as an energy source on Nauru as the island is 100% electrified by grid-distributed power.

Why is there limited interest in solar applications on Nauru?

As all energy on Nauru is provided from predominantly fossil fuels (electricity generation), there has only been a limited interest shown in solar applications. Nauru being located nearly on the equator limits the need for hot water for domestic applications.

What is the 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 energy.
