This paper, specifically deals with the cost optimization of electricity generation from a grid connected hybrid solar and diesel generator.
On a kilowatt-hour (kWh) by kilowatt-hour basis, solar’s your best, but you need to add battery energy storage capacity in order to reach higher levels of penetration,” he noted. “Nassau’s [the Bahamas’ largest city] is a pretty big grid, and it can take a fair bit of solar without storage,” Burgess continued.
The Bahamas has been taking steps to end the state-owned utility’s energy monopoly and reduce the energy sector’s carbon and environmental footprints in line with national and international greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and climate change goals. Government leaders have earmarked $170 million for renewable energy financing in the 2019–2020 budget.
Several projects that capitalize on that solar power potential are underway, Jones Bahamas points out. The Bahamas Ministry of Environment and Housing in February contracted Woslee Construction to begin building out a rooftop solar installation at the Anatol Rodgers High School.
