Wärtsilä wins Bahamas BESS contract to aid
Like other islands without interconnection to a large grid network, sudden load changes and extreme weather can greatly impact the Bahamas'' electric system reliability. Energy storage and more flexible thermal generation can contribute to smoothing out the fluctuations, especially as the region increases its share of variable renewable energy
Entura helps Cook Islands reach renewable energy milestone
"Energy security and self-sufficiency are essential for remote islands such as the Cook Islands," said Entura''s Managing Director, Tammy Chu. "Diesel fuel remains the single largest expense to generate power in these remote locations, so using renewable energy makes good economic sense as well as reducing carbon and other emissions."
