In view of the increasing share of the Variable Renewable Energy (VRE) in the energy mix of Mauritius, the CEB has planned for the introduction of Battery Energy Storage System on its network to arrest the fluctuation inherent to the VRE systems. The Mauritian energy transition to a low carbon economy is picking up speed.
This is in line with the Government of Mauritius’ Long Term Energy Strategy 2009-2025 to increase the share of renewable energy in our energy mix (electricity production, transportation sector and manufacturing) to 35% by, namely, reducing the country’s dependence on coal and heavy oil for electricity generation.
The Mauritian energy transition to a low carbon economy is picking up speed. The CEB has installed the first grid-scale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), the first in its kind in Mauritius, to enable high capacity storage of renewable energy in the grid.
Of all the solutions proposed byAkuo, the agrivoltaics concept is particularly well suited to Mauritius. It makes better use of the territory by allowing farmers to work safe, irrigated land. A question ? A project ?
Already firmly established on neighboring Reunion island, for several years now Akuo has been developing operations on Mauritius, which is experiencing rapid energy changes. In 2019 Akuo commissioned the island’s largest solar power plantHenrietta.
In addition to Akuo’s first achievements on the island, our teams are keen to play a key role in the Mauritian government’senergy transition roadmap which aims to reach 60% of energy from renewable sources in the mix and to phase out coal by 2030.
