Wind-Diesel Hybrid System St. Helena. The St. Helena project started in 1998, when three Lagerwey 18/80 turbines were installed on the island. In 2009, Wind Energy Solutions (WES) increased the number of turbines to a total of six by adding three WES80 80 kW wind turbines. In 2014, another six turbines have doubled the wind capacity on the
Connect Saint Helena Ltd Signs Contract With PASH To Meet
Connect Saint Helena Ltd (Connect) has today signed a Power Purchase Agreement with PASH Global to provide wind turbine, solar power and battery storage capacity to St Helena, significantly increasing the amount of renewable energy capacity on the Island and resulting in the majority of the Island''s energy needs being met by renewable sources.
