4 FAQs about [Lithium bess Timor-Leste]
How many power plants are there in Timor-Leste?
The generation capacity in Timor-Leste currently stands at almost 300 MW consisting of 3 power plants. In addition to these main power plants meeting most of the power demand of the country, small diesel-fired generators serve as a significant source of electric power in many localities with inadequate power from the grid.
Will Timor-Leste replace oil imports with solar power?
More than 75% of oil imports in Timor-Leste are used for electricity production across the country and around 90% of the sector’s operating costs are fuel costs associated with power generation. The Government of Timor-Leste intends to replace part of this high-cost generation by more cost-efficient solar power.
Can Timor-Leste generate solar energy?
As almost the whole territory of Timor-Leste has the potential to successfully generate solar energy, the Government is keen to tap into this potential to setup utility scale solar plants as well as off-grid lighting solutions for remote localities.
What is a Timor-Leste electrical contract?
to support the development of the renewable energy industry and to improve the stability of the electrical grid in Timor-Leste (the Contract) through a fair, transparent and competitive bidding process in accordance with the Timor-Leste Law and international best practices (Bidding Process).
