Puerto Rico is planning to build two. 2 gw pv + 1. 08 gw energy storage projects

Solar photovoltaic net news: recently, Puerto Rico power bureau ( PREPA） Released on January 23, 2019, integrated resource planning ( IRP) Draft, will be over the next 20 years as the island of Puerto Rico grid increase cleaner energy sources.

(Puerto Rico electric power station PREPA） Plans to increase installed capacity of more than 2220 MW photovoltaic power generation facilities and 1080 MW battery energy storage system, and phase out coal and fuel power generation facilities. Puerto Rico island every year to import a lot of these expensive fuel. Puerto Rico power bureau ( PREPA） Also plans to build three LNG import terminal, although last year Puerto Rico made using 100% renewable energy target.

before the 2017 hurricane maria to destroy the island power system, power authority (Puerto Rico PREPA） With more than $9 billion of debt. Integrated resource planning ( IRP) Possible privatisation, points out its power generating assets is expected to Puerto Rico power bureau ( PREPA） Last summer, a $9 billion debt consolidation agreement will pave the way for its privatization.

environmental advocacy group the sierra club ( Sierra Club） , said the draft launched a America's largest photovoltaic + battery energy storage construction scheme.

(Puerto Rico electric power station PREPA） Integrated resource planning ( IRP) Identified by utility companies or private entity with micro power grid, including eight self-sufficient area, and is called small grid ( MiniGrids） To ensure that the local resources can provide electricity services during and after the storm.

(Puerto Rico electric power station PREPA） With Siemens power technology international cooperation company, forecasting the integrated resource planning ( IRP) The various scenarios.

the program will focus on deployment of the first five years, including the maximum integration of renewable energy power generation and distributed resources, and strengthen the distribution grid in order to successfully will be separated into multiple small grid ( MiniGrids） 。

integrated resource planning ( IRP) , & other; For mitigation, management and implementation from the storm in a timely manner is very important to restore power, at the same time will use the tradition of heavy fuel oil and coal power plants to cleaner natural gas plants. ”

(Puerto Rico electric power station PREPA） Integrated resource planning ( IRP) Draft shows the investment using two hours, four hours and 6 hours power grid size of the potential of lithium ion battery energy storage system.

Siemens power technology international company in the customer the possibility of completely off the grid, is expected to local residents need to deploy a photovoltaic power generation facilities and power battery energy storage system can realize 6 hours to completely self-sufficient.

the sierra club branch on the island of Puerto Rico and other activists continue to resist Puerto Rico will be public utilities privatization plan. The sierra club, according to the environment and consumer rights advocates also efforts to use more economic than fossil fuels, the island of cleaner alternative energy sources, and are pushing for new construction and development of natural gas plants.

recently, anhui, henan region there are many spontaneous private mode, for the higher percentage of spontaneous and don't need subsidies distributed photovoltaic projects have been told to suspend acceptance, reason is power grid companies worry about third parties using photovoltaic (pv) sell electricity to the owner, earnings impact power grid, grabbed their jobs! （ Source: WeChat public & other; Photovoltaic (pv), a think-tank, & throughout; ID: gfzk168) Subsidy policy in 2019, under the background of delay, and encountered such a situation,

fossil energy arrived bearing renewable energy & other; The other shore & throughout; The & other; Ship & throughout; , is the gateway to & other; The other shore & throughout; The & other; Bridge & throughout; 。 Fossil fuels will still play essential roles in quite a long time. So, the future of fossil energy has been the low carbon, high efficient work, achieving high carbon low carbon utilization of energy, renewable energy is to intensify research and development, efforts to achieve parity on the Internet, both should be coordinated, complementary development, jointly build clean low-carbon, safe and effective system of modern energy.
