In view of the increasing share of the Variable Renewable Energy (VRE) in the energy mix of Mauritius, the CEB has planned for the introduction of Battery Energy Storage System on its network to arrest the fluctuation inherent to the VRE systems. The Mauritian energy transition to a low carbon economy is picking up speed.
The Mauritian energy transition to a low carbon economy is picking up speed. The CEB has installed the first grid-scale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), the first in its kind in Mauritius, to enable high capacity storage of renewable energy in the grid.
This is in line with the Government of Mauritius’ Long Term Energy Strategy 2009-2025 to increase the share of renewable energy in our energy mix (electricity production, transportation sector and manufacturing) to 35% by, namely, reducing the country’s dependence on coal and heavy oil for electricity generation.
Qair Group already operates three solar PV and wind energy farms in Mauritius with a combined capacity of 35 MW. The group founded by Jean-Marc Bouchet has a combined renewable energy capacity of 860 MW operational in Africa, South-East Asia, South America, and Europe.
The country, located off the coast of East Africa, is facing a rise in fossil fuels due to the current energy crisis. Qair Group already operates three solar PV and wind energy farms in Mauritius with a combined capacity of 35 MW.
