Nauru has embarked on an ambitious project to install a grid-connected solar power plant with a capacity of 6 megawatts (MW) of alternating current. This initiative is part of the Solar Power Development Project, which aims to diversify the energy mix and reduce reliance on diesel.
The high cost of power generation in Nauru, often exceeding $0.40 per kilowatt-hour, has historically required government subsidies to keep electricity affordable for residents. However, recent efforts, including support from the Asian Development Bank (ADB), have aimed to improve the financial sustainability of the energy sector.
"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. On top of building the power project, China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd is also undertaking the redevelopment of Nauru's largest harbor, Aiwo Harbor.
