Mauritius aims to increase the share of renewable energy sources in its energy mix, which leads to fluctuating power injection. To reduce this fluctuation from variable renewable energy sources, the installation of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) is required.
Mauritius generates energy through various means including wind farms, solar energy, biomass, wave, and waste-to-energy projects. Currently, bagasse (sugarcane waste) is the leading source, contributing 13.3 percent to the renewable energy generation. Mauritius derives other renewable electricity from hydro, wind, landfill gas, and solar.
