This significant milestone is a result of the collaboration between the Government of Samoa, the Government of Japan, and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). The project includes the provision of 76 electric vehicles, charging stations, and the launch of two project documents.
In a statement to the Samoan Observer, Samoa Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sa’ilele Malielegaoi noted that the utilization of Tesla’s battery storage system has helped the country provide additional stability to its power grid.
In Australia alone, Tesla is involved in the creation of an enormous Powerpack farm in Victoria, as well as the first installations in its proposed 50,000 Powerwall virtual power plant in South Australia. Overall, the Samoa Powerpack installations stand as the company’s latest project situated on an island.
Of the total funding of US$37.5 million, US$15.5 million has been allocated to Samoa’s CAP-IT project, enabling the launch of this green initiative. #GreenTransport #SustainableSamoa #CAPIT #Japan #Samoa #UNDP
