WHES Implements Solar-Storage-Diesel Microgrid in Comoros for Enhanced Energy Stability
The Comoros has commissioned a 16 MW solar PV and 9.1 MWh energy storage system to address chronic electricity shortages. This project, funded by the UAE and developed by Global South Utilities, aims to reduce reliance on diesel, enhance grid stability, and promote sustainable development.
The installation of a 16 MW solar photovoltaic system alongside a 9.1 MWh energy storage solution in Grande Comore is now operational. Funded by the United Arab Emirates and developed by Global South Utilities, the project integrates WHES Energy Storage Systems’ PC-G1 units, providing a total capacity of 3.9 MW / 9.1 MWh.
This microgrid architecture allows efficient energy generation and storage management, significantly minimizing diesel fuel dependency and emissions. The PC-G1 system is designed for harsh coastal conditions, ensuring long-term reliability.
Local training and support enhance operational sustainability. The project marks a significant advancement in renewable energy access for Comoros.
