Source: PPUC and PEA data (n.d.). Together with a large amount of diesel generation, Palau also has some installed solar PV capacity. Indeed, the country's current renewable energy capacity includes a total of 2.5 MW of utility-scale solar PV systems (see Table 3).
The results show that on top of the 2.5 MW of solar PV currently present in Palau, an additional 83 MW of solar PV and 20 MW of wind turbines would be required for such a system. Furthermore, this scenario would necessitate a battery storage system of 168 MWh and battery inverters of 34 MW.
The results of the optimisation show that Palau's current power system is dominated by diesel generation, with renewable energy only taking a small share (just 4%). With more deployment, however, the share taken by renewables could potentially increase to more than 92%. This corresponds to the lowest average system LCOE.
The load had a scaled annual average of 26 250 kWh/day, with a storage capacity of 94 500 kWh and peak load of 8 325 kW. The EV load increased Palau's total demand even further, from 120 GWh/year in the previous scenario to 127 GWh/year. Moreover, this scenario showed excess electricity generation of 40 GWh/year.
