6 FAQs about [Mauritius bess energy]

Does Mauritius need a battery energy storage system?

Mauritius aims to increase the share of renewable energy sources in its energy mix, which leads to fluctuating power injection. To reduce this fluctuation from variable renewable energy sources, the installation of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) is required.

How will Mauritius transition to a low carbon economy?

The Mauritian energy transition to a low carbon economy is picking up speed. The CEB has installed the first grid-scale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), the first in its kind in Mauritius, to enable high capacity storage of renewable energy in the grid.

How does Mauritius generate energy?

Mauritius generates energy through various means including wind farms, solar energy, biomass, wave, and waste-to-energy projects. Currently, bagasse (sugarcane waste) is the leading source, contributing 13.3 percent to the renewable energy generation. Mauritius derives other renewable electricity from hydro, wind, landfill gas, and solar.

What is Bess and how does it work?

This high-tech, latest technology and ultra-fast response battery energy storage system (BESS) is the first of a series of upgrades to the electricity grid in order to achieve a smarter, more modern and cleaner electricity network in Mauritius.

Does Mauritius use solar energy?

Mauritius has an attractive potential for solar energy, with an average annual solar radiation value of some 6 kWh/m2/day. Solar photovoltaic (PV) energy is an option due to the almost year-round intensive sunlight. To achieve the target of 60 percent renewable energy by 2030, Mauritius has commissioned six more solar farms.

What is Mauritius' long term energy strategy?

This is in line with the Government of Mauritius’ Long Term Energy Strategy 2009-2025 to increase the share of renewable energy in our energy mix (electricity production, transportation sector and manufacturing) to 35% by, namely, reducing the country’s dependence on coal and heavy oil for electricity generation.
