Solar Power Development Project: Development Coordination

The development of the Nauru Port (Sustainable and Climate-Resilient Connectivity Project) is the centerpiece of ADB''s program. ADB will also support Nauru''s participation in a regional undersea cable to enhance internet connectivity. 4. According to Nauru''s annual development fund projections for fiscal year (FY) 2019

Nauru: Solar Power Development Project

The Solar Power Development Project will ﬁnance (i) a grid-connected solar power plant with a capacity of 6 megawatts (MW) of alternating current; and (ii) a 2.5-megawatt-hour, 5 MW battery energy storage system (BESS) to enable smoothing of intermittent solar energy.

Nauru: Solar Power Development Project

decrease the cost of power supply by replacing diesel power generation with solar power, and (iii) reduce greenhouse gas emissions through development of renewable energy. The proposed subproject is in-line with the Republic of Nauru Energy Road Map 2014-2020, and is included in the ADB Country Operations Business Plan. The proposed subproject

China-Nauru cooperation in photovoltaic solar energy

In the southwestern part of the island nation, rows of blue photovoltaic panels are neatly arranged close to the azure sea, reflecting the dazzling tropical sunlight. Once connected to the grid, the photovoltaic power generation and energy storage project being constructed by a Chinese company can meet the electricity demand of the entire island.

Datong Power Station Solar PV Park, China

Datong Power Station Solar PV Park is a 100MW solar PV power project. It is located in Shanxi, China. The project is currently active. It has been developed in single phase. Post completion of construction, the project got commissioned in June 2016.

5 FAQs about [Nauru datong solar power]

Who will implement solar project in Nauru?

The executing agency will be the Department of Finance and Sustainable Development. The implementing agency for solar component of project will be the Nauru Utilities Corporation (NUC). NUC will establish a project management unit within their existing organisational structure to implement the project.

How will ADB support the Nauru solar power development project?

ADB also provided GoN support to prepare a Feasibility Study for the recommended Nauru Solar Power Development Project which will comprise of a 6 megawatt PV plant coupled with a 5 megawatt / 2.5 megawatt-hour battery energy storage system coupled with a SCADA installation.

Does Nauru need solar power?

"Now Nauru's power generation mainly relies on diesel. That's expensive and would pollute the environment," said John Scott, who has been working for the project since 2022. "There is a lot of sunshine here and it's good for solar power. I believe electricity supply here will be much better when the project is completed," Scott told Xinhua.

How will Nauru's solar power system work?

The system will be fully integrated and automated with the existing diesel generation (17.9 MW installed capacity currently manually operated) to optimize solar energy use, to enable optimal BESS charging/discharging and to provide optimal shut off of the diesel engines. This will reduce Nauru’s over reliance on diesel for power generation.

What is a Nauru power expansion plan?

The electrical network comprises 11kV, 3.3KV and LV overhead lines. Asian Development Bank (ADB) provided Government of Nauru (GoN) a transactional technical assistance TRTA to prepare a Nauru power expansion plan. The plan identified that a PV array and battery energy storage system should be constructed.
