The power generating capacity of the Solomon Islands is currently 10.2 MW, which is equal to its peak load capacity. One mining company in the Solomon Islands generates its own electricity with a power capacity of 11 MW and a peak load of 8 – 9 MW.
This is the first time in 31 years that Solomon Power is constructing a new outstation the last one being in Malu'u. The scope includes solar panels, battery storage system, back up diesel generator and 415 V distribution network to connect about 200 customers at each of these sites in Western Province and Choiseul Province.
Air conditioning in government offices and business houses is a significant contributor to energy consumption in Solomon Islands. Proper maintenance and the introduction of more efficient air conditioners with controls that allow the system to shut down when not needed are ways to reduce energy consumption in this area.
The project was completed by MAN diesel for over SBD120m. The new station has been commissioned and is currently in operation. Furthermore to improve the reliability Solomon Power invested in a new 11 kV switchboard, two 1.6 MW diesel generators and two new power transformers at Honiara Power Station.
