This is the first time in 31 years that Solomon Power is constructing a new outstation the last one being in Malu’u. The scope includes solar panels, battery storage system, back up diesel generator and 415 V distribution network to connect about 200 customers at each of these sites in Western Province and Choiseul Province.
Hybrid Generation systems in Seghe and Taro This project commenced in late 2015 to construct two new mini hybrid outstations. This is the first time in 31 years that Solomon Power is constructing a new outstation the last one being in Malu’u.
With a capital expansion programme of over SBD1 billion, Solomon Power strives to develop and implement its planned capital and infrastructure projects over the next five years that will support its mission to provide a safe, reliable and affordable supply of electricity to the Solomon Islands.
Following the 2013 feasibility study investigating the development of a 1MW grid-connected solar power station, UAE and NZ government cofounded the development of a 1MW solar farm project at Fighter 1, Henderson. The plant will save SP approximately US$880k per annum in diesel cost and help reduce the cost of electricity.
However with the unreliability of generation coupled but with an escalating demand for power, SP has invested in the construction of a new station with an installed capacity of 10MW. The project was completed by MAN diesel for over SBD120m. The new station has been commissioned and is currently in operation.
Northpower of New Zealand was awarded the contract to supply the Generators for the selected outstations. The generators were tested and configured in Honiara and shipped out to the provinces in 2016. a. Gizo power station upgrade project.
