SOLOMON ISLANDS ENERGY STORAGE BATTERY WHOLESALE MANUFACTURER
Solomon Islands energy storage power station manufacturer
MAN was awarded the EPC contract in 2014 meaning it was responsible for the power plant design, the manufacturing and procuring of equipment as well as constructing the project at SIEA’s site in Lungga. [pdf]FAQS about Solomon Islands energy storage power station manufacturer
What's new at Solomon power station?
The project was completed by MAN diesel for over SBD120m. The new station has been commissioned and is currently in operation. Furthermore to improve the reliability Solomon Power invested in a new 11 kV switchboard, two 1.6 MW diesel generators and two new power transformers at Honiara Power Station.
What is the power generation capacity of Solomon Islands?
The power generating capacity of the Solomon Islands is currently 10.2 MW, which is equal to its peak load capacity. One mining company in the Solomon Islands generates its own electricity with a power capacity of 11 MW and a peak load of 8 – 9 MW.
What is Solomon power's capital expansion programme?
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.

How much electricity does Namibia import?
Currently Namibia imports up to 70% of its electricity from neighbouring countries. This electricity is predominately generated with coal.
Can a battery storage system support the integration of re?
A battery storage system such as the KfW funded 58MW / 75 MWh Omburu BESS Project can fulfil a multitude of tasks related to the challenges of the integration of RE and is ideally suited to support the sustainable development of the Namibian electricity sector.
How will Namibia improve energy supply stability by 2030?
By 2030 the Namibian government plans to increase the share of renewable energies (RE) in its electricity generation from around 30% to 70%. With a growing share of RE the need for measures to maintain and improve energy supply stability is also growing.
Could surplus electricity be stored in the Bess?
Surplus electricity from RE generation as well as cheaper electricity imports from the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP) can be stored in the BESS. The stored energy could supply customers during peak times and would offset fossil energy from the aging local Van Eck coal power plant.
Why is Namibia a pioneering project?
As the project is the first of its kind in Namibia, it fulfils a pioneering function - it is expected that subsequent projects in the same field will benefit substantially from the experience gained from within this project. Currently Namibia imports up to 70% of its electricity from neighbouring countries.
