Hawaii to 100% renewable energy

Solar photovoltaic webex: Hawaii is one of the most remote island in the world, because of the need to import the fossil fuel power generation, there is usually a high energy costs.

kauai ( Kauai） Northwest Hawaiian islands is one of the seven inhabited island. Kauai utility cooperatives ( KIUC） Is a non-profit organization, is responsible for the operation on the island of photovoltaic power station, the project will provide power supply more than 70000 people.

in April 2020, oil prices fell to record lows, before KIUC, chief executive of Davic Bissell said that the cost of solar energy is far lower than the oil electricity costs, and added that as technology advances, the cost of solar energy will be more and more low. And solar power network, for enterprises and domestic consumers, it is important that solar energy prices are stable.

Bissell, said in the sunniest time of the day, the solar energy can be 100% meet the demand of kauai energy during the day, you can store excess energy in the battery.

in March 2017, KIUC unveiled the world's first utility scale solar + battery energy storage power generation facilities. The battery system can store electricity during the day, and at night the electricity peak hours to provide power for four hours.

Hawaii's goal is to achieve 100% renewable energy by 2045. Hawaii sustainable development initiative launched in 2016, aims to support the sustainable development of the global agreed targets ( 西班牙) 。 Sustainable development goals focus on affordable clean energy, solar energy portal, promises a substantial increase in the proportion of renewable energy in the global energy structure.

the international labor organization ( ILO） Green economic experts Moustapha Kamal Gueye said, like kauai island, because of the remote areas and limited natural resource base and unique environmental challenges and external supply shocks, thus to develop solar energy as part of the green investment strategy, link the different parts of the economy, solar portal, produced a multiplier effect in the sustainable development.

The article content is for reference only.

this paper statistics the September to today issued a total of 2. 85 gw pv power plant EPC and 1. 9 gw component bid opening information. Among them, the EPC project owner units is given priority to with soe/state, this also reflected from the side, photovoltaic (pv) grid, in project bidding and parity, the state-owned enterprises have become the absolute main force. Specifically, CGNPC in development of 410 mw, 603 mw, guangzhou energy saving 220 mw, 345 mw, jin can group the people vote for 200 mw, 190 mw hubei energy group, huaneng power 180 mw
