Considering the current challenges posed by energy structural transformation on remote islands, the technical and economic assessment of a hybrid renewable power system were performed considering the Huraa Island of Maldives as a case study.
The Maldives solar project is a 36 MW solar power project and 50 MWh of battery energy storage solutions development across various islands in the Maldives. It also includes grid modernization for the integration of variable renewable energy with the grid, which will be financed under the proposed AIIB loan.
Liquified petroleum gas (LPG) was consumed for cooking, as well as a small amount of biomass. The energy supply structure of the Maldives is representative for small islands or small island development states (SIDS) in the Sun Belt , .
Although a specific case study is used in this work, the model and methodology developed in this study can be replicated to design cost-effective hybrid energy system in other islands of the Maldives as well as other islands or in general in other renewables-based microgrids worldwide.
The Maldives are an example of island countries having one of the most ambitious emissions targets of all island nations , as they aim to reach a net-zero energy system already by 2030 .
Already in 2030, PV becomes the major electricity generation source for the Maldives. In case of no local transport e-fuels production, a total of 1.42 TWh and 3.23 TWh of electricity is supplied by PV in 2030 and 2050, in which, floating PV contributes with 1.08 TWh and 2.88 TWh.
