The core components include a 1 MW ground-mounted solar array coupled with a substantial 2 MW/2. 5 MWh lithium-ion battery energy storage system (BESS). This combination is engineered to provide a stable power supply and significantly reduce the region's dependence on diesel generators.
As of recent data, the average cost of a BESS is approximately $400-$600 per kWh. Here's a simple breakdown: This estimation shows that while the battery itself is a significant cost, the other components collectively add up, making the total price tag substantial.
The project encompasses the construction of a solar and battery energy storage system (BESS) minigrid to be built on the island of Buka, within the autonomous region of Bougainville in Papua New Guinea. It will address the electricity needs of the region, which relies heavily on.
