HONIARA, SOLOMON ISLANDS (11 September 2024)– The Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the Government of Solomon Islands are joining other partners to help Solomon Islands transition to renewable energy with a transformational project that will accelerate renewable energy generation and battery storage system installation, support
In a media statement, the ADB confirmed that it had struck a US$15 million deal with the Solomon Islands, consisting of a US$10 million concessional loan agreement and a US$5 million grant agreement.
The Solomon Islands Renewable Energy Development Project (SIREDP) is supported with grant funding from the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The project will help Solomon Islands
It is part of a broader programme by Solomon Power to expand electricity access to rural communities through renewable energy-based grids. ADB is providing a USD-2.24-million grant for the project, which will also be funded by a USD-6.2-million grant from the Strategic Climate Fund and USD 6.76 million from the government of Solomon Islands.
Key components of the renewable energy project include: Financing new solar farms in Guadalcanal and Malaita provinces, along with a utility-scale grid-connected energy storage system in Honiara. Piloting a business model

ADB and the Government of Solomon Islands are joining other partners to help Solomon Islands transition to renewable energy with a transformational project that will accelerate renewable energy generation and battery storage system installation, support power sector reforms, and promote private sector participation in the renewable energy
The initiative will fund the construction of new solar farms in Guadalcanal and Malaita, install the largest grid-connected battery storage system in the Pacific, and introduce rooftop solar systems at regional schools. Additionally, it will support reforms in the power sector and encourage private sector participation.
ADB, SIG join forces with other partners to transition SI to renewable energy under a $10million loan and $5million grant . THE Asian Development Bank (ADB) and Solomon Islands Government are joining other partners to help Solomon Islands transition to renewable energy with a transformational project, ADB''s Shane Rosenthal announced Thursday.
The Solomon Islands Renewable Energy Development Project plans to finance new solar farms in Guadalcanal and Malaita provinces, along with a utility-scale grid-connected energy storage system in Honiara, the country''s capital. It will also support a pilot for rooftop solar at two regional schools.
Commissioning of the battery energy storage systems (BESS) and full operation of the solar power plants in Kirakira, Malu''u and Munda is planned for Q3 2024,

The project will finance new solar farms in Guadalcanal and Malaita province, along with a utility-scale grid-connected energy storage system in Honiara. Nearly all of Solomon Islands'' grid power is diesel generated.
These projects are funded under the World Bank Solomon Islands Sustainable Energy Project. The scope includes relocation of feeder 12 from Lungga Power Station to East Honiara Substation; upgrade of Ranadi Substation (includes replacement of the two 33/11 kV transformers and new 11 and 33 kV switchgear and associated protection and control) and design and

London UK, September 2024 – Stellae Energy, a UK-based Green Energy Solutions and Assets company, is pleased to announce significant progress following the signing of a detailed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Solomon Islands in 2023.
Only about 16 percent of the population of around 600,000 people have access to the grid. The project eventually aims to provide 68% of electricity demand for the capital Honiara by 2025, and provide Solomon Islands with reservoir capacity, giving flexibility to the power system to enable higher penetration of PV power without the need for large and expensive energy storage or
Commissioning of the battery energy storage systems (BESS) and full operation of the solar power plants in Kirakira, Malu''u and Munda is planned for Q3 2024, while commissioning of the solar power plant in Lata is expected in Q4 2024.
The Solomon Islands Renewable Energy Development Project (SIREDP) is supported with grant funding from the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The project will help Solomon Islands increase the penetration of renewable energy and reduce dependence on imported diesel fuel for electricity generation. The Project Preparation Consultant (Entura) carried

The Solomon Islands Renewable Energy Development Project will finance two photovoltaic (PV) parks and a utility-scale grid-connected energy storage system in the Solomon Islands. The Asian Development Bank, the Saudi Fund for Development and Solomon Power are financing the project.
The project will assist Solomon Islands install solar power hybrid grids, including battery storage, to replace diesel generation. Following the project, an estimated 78% of power generated at the five targeted provincial grids will be from solar power. Project preparatory technical assistance was used in project preparation.1 2. The impact will be utilization of renewable energy has
This will provide access of low-income households to electricity in Peri-urban and rural areas of Solomon Islands, and by increasing the generation capacity of renewable energy facilities (solar PV) in the Islands.
Component 3: US$ 2.5million to add grid-connected solar power to contribute to the overall share of renewable energy in Solomon Islands energy mix. Solomon Power has identified three possible sites for grid-connected solar PV, not all of which are likely to be funded under the Project. These include:
The financing package for the project, worth over US$200 million, through loans and grants from six institutions, marks the first large-scale infrastructure project for Solomon Islands to be developed as a public-private partnership (PPP).
The Solomon Islands produce a total of 103 m kWh of electric energy per year. Per capita, this is an average of 135 kWh. The country can completely be self-sufficient with domestically produced energy, as their total production meets 108 percent of their own requirements.
Solomon Power is the implementing agency for the Solar Power Development Project. They provide personnel for the Project Management Unit (PMU). The PMU, which is within Solomon Power, has been responsible for the procurement of all civil works and goods for the project, in accordance with ADB's Procurement Guidelines.
