6 FAQs about [2 mw solar power plant Haiti]

What is the largest solar plant in Haiti?

A 12 MW solar plant being funded by the IDB and USAID was slated to be completed in 2023, as of September 2021, and would be the largest solar plant in Haiti. Haiti suffers immensely from climate change, particularly from hurricanes, flooding, droughts, and shoreline erosion.

Can solar energy be used effectively in Haiti?

Solar energy can be used effectively in Haiti, offering energy self-sufficiency to the most isolated cities in the absence of a power grid. The country’s location in the tropics gives it very strong solar energy potential. It is believed that solar energy will play a fundamental role in access to electricity over the next 10 to 15 years.

What is the solar power plant capacity in Haiti?

The solar power plant in Haiti has a capacity of 1.2 MWp. It is located in the Commune of Jacmel, South-East Department, and is connected to the regional electricity network of Jacmel.

Is Haiti a solar power market?

Recently, many solar companies have seen Haiti as a huge market potential for solar energy. The founder of 10Power estimates that the potential solar power market is worth over $500 million. In 2013, the completion of Hôpital Universitaire de Mirebalais came to an end. This hospital is the largest solar-powered hospital in the world.

Who is responsible for the construction of solar power plants?

The construction of these solar plants will be implemented by the Ministry of Finance Technical Operating Unit (UTE/MEF), with technical support from the State energy regulator, Autorité nationale de régulation du secteur de l’énergie (ANARSE) and the Ministry of Public Works, Transport and Communication (MTPTC).

How will the two solar power plants be operated?

The two solar plants will be operated and maintained by a single independent private operator. The contract for the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the two solar power plants will be awarded by UTE/MEF through an international competitive bidding process launched in September 2020.
