Energy in Mayotte
Solar energy is the only renewable energy with significant development potential on the island; the wind potential (22 MW according to a study) would not lead to a significant production because the wind blows only 6 months per year.
Production of renewable energy in Mayotte
Mayotte is no doubt the French overseas territory facing the most challenging energy transition. It has the highest cost of electric power generation, at nearly €350/MWh in 2021, and the most carbon-intensive production, with fossil fuels accounting for over 95%.
Akuo Unveils 1.2 MW Hamaha Plant in Mayotte, France
Akuo inaugurated the Hamaha solar plant with storage on Mayotte Island. Built on a former landfill, the project, developed in collaboration with local authorities, repurposes the land for a 30-year decontamination period.
Inauguration of the Hamaha plant in Mayotte
The plant incorporates an energy storage mechanism using Lithium-ion batteries. These batteries enable solar production to be smoothed out and 3.5 MWh – i.e. the electricity produced by the plant in 3 hours – to be stored.
