6 FAQs about [Utility scale solar Puerto Rico]

Will Puerto Rico get a solar loan guarantee?

How much solar power does Puerto Rico have?

Collectively, the project comprises 200 MW of solar PV and up to 285 MW (1,140 MWh) of stand-alone BESS capacity. Annually, the solar PV installations will produce approximately 460,000 MWh of energy, enough to power approximately 43,000 homes, and enhance Puerto Rico’s grid reliability and energy security.

Does Puerto Rico need energy storage solutions?

“Isolated from typical supply lines, Puerto Rico needs solutions that reduce electricity costs, improve grid reliability, and accelerate renewable energy deployment,” says DEPCOM Director of Energy Storage Nadja Gocek.

How will Puerto Rico benefit from a solar PV project?

Annually, the solar PV installations will produce approximately 460,000 MWh of energy, enough to power approximately 43,000 homes, and enhance Puerto Rico’s grid reliability and energy security. The co-location of the new solar and battery resources will help maximize the project’s energy production and improve grid stability.

Does Puerto Rico need a solar system?

According to the Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, including the communities surrounding the Salinas and Jobos projects, face some of the greatest energy burdens in the United States. Widescale solar deployment can help benefit communities across the island by reducing Puerto Rico’s high energy costs.

What is the Puerto Rico energy resilience fund (PR-ERF)?

In December 2022, President Biden authorized $1 billion for the establishment of the Puerto Rico Energy Resilience Fund (PR-ERF), which is administered by DOE’s Grid Deployment Office. The PR-ERF is a separate federal funding source to drive key investments in renewable and resilient energy infrastructure in Puerto Rico.
