Overview

The Republic of the Solomon Islands consists of over 1,000 islands inhabited by a total population of 609,883. Approximately 90% of the electricity produced is diesel generated. The one megawatt solar PV plant, which was expanded from 600kW following a grant from the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, bolster energy resilience and reduces costs associated with diesel imports.
