In an exciting development for renewable energy in Africa, Qair, an Independent Power Producer (IPP), has successfully closed a loan to finance a significant 60MW hybrid solar photovoltaic and battery energy storage system (BESS) project in Mauritius.
[pdf] The system is based on LiFePOâ‚„ lithium iron phosphate battery technology, offering high safety, a long lifespan (over 6,500 cycles), and a modular design, making it ideal for Mauritius's abundant sunlight and fragile power infrastructure.
[pdf] The Government of Mauritius has inaugurated a 20 MW grid-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) at the Amaury Sub-station, marking a significant stride towards its ambitious goal of achieving 60% renewable energy in the electricity mix by 2030.
