Solar microgrids to supply aquaculture centers in Hawaii

Billion Electric Group, a Taiwan-based that provides renewable energy services, in collaboration with Taiwanese partners, has made available solar microgrids to aquaculture centers and demonstration farms in Palau, Tuvalu, the Marshall Islands, and Hawaii, to reduce their dependence on imported fossil fuels.

The 495 kWp of solar photovoltaic energy and 1,997 kWh of battery energy storage systems (BESS) are expected to reduce carbon emissions by 800 metric tons annually, with over 50% renewable energy self-sufficiency.

Livestock farms, offices, and dormitories now operate on 100% green energy, thereby reducing both energy costs and environmental impact.

Billion's systems optimize energy in real-time and enable bidirectional transmission, including a cloud-based monitoring platform. By utilizing solar energy and incorporating black start capability, diesel generators can autonomously restart in the event of power grid failures.

"We develop flexible and scalable microgrid solutions for diverse applications, enabling the energy transition in off-grid and remote regions. By fostering local service teams and forming global partnerships, we ensure system reliability, accelerate green energy adoption, and enhance grid resilience." explained Tim Chen, President & CEO of Billion Electric Group.
