SOLAR RESOURCE AND PV POTENTIAL OF THE MALDIVES
Long-term averages provide a basic overview of solar resource availability and its seasonal variability. P50 value Best estimate or median value represents 50% probability of exceedance. For annual and monthly solar irradiation summaries it is close to average, since multiyear distribution of solar radiation resembles normal distribution.
Powered by the Sunshine: Achieving Cheaper, Cleaner and
World Bank-financed projects ASPIRE and ARISE support Maldives'' energy transition by installing more than 53.5 megawatts of solar capacity and 50-megawatt hours of battery storage. This will reduce Maldives'' annual import bill by about $30 million, with a project lifetime saving of $756 million over 25 years.

6 FAQs about [Maldives solar panel grid system]
What is Maldives solar power development & energy storage solution?
Maldives: Maldives Solar Power Development and Energy Storage Solution 2. Project Summary and Objectives Project Summary: The project involves the development of a 36-megawatt (MW) solar power project and 50 megawatt hours (MWh) of battery energy storage solutions across various selected islands in the Maldives.
What are the different types of solar energy technologies in Maldives?
There are two main types of solar energy technologies: photovoltaic (PV) and concentrating solar power (CSP). Photovoltaics have high potential in Maldives, and this technology is discussed in this Chapter. CSP technology is not expected to be implemented in Maldives.
What are the challenges facing solar projects in Maldives?
Challenges facing such projects include integrating solar with existing power sources on the grid, off-taker risk, weak procurement, and planning capacity. The objective of the ASPIRE project is to increase photo voltaic (PV) generation in Maldives through private-sector investment. Approved in 2020, the ARISE Project scaled up this process.
How much does a solar project cost in Maldives?
In 2022, 63 investor expressed interest in the third 11 MW solar project in the remote islands of Maldives, and a record low price of 9.8 US cents was received. This is one of the lowest tariffs for any small island developing state (SIDS).
Will a 5 MW solar installation make Maldives a popular destination?
Now, one of the first sights for any of the 1.7 million tourists visiting the Maldives will be that of the 5 MW solar installation on the highway linking the airport island to Male and its satellite town of Hulhumale.
Should investors invest in sustainable solar projects in the Maldives?
In 2014, the first 1.5 MW solar project under ASPIRE only had four investors bids, and resulted in a high power purchase price (PPA) of 21 US cents per unit of electricity, indicating a lack of interest from investors in investing in sustainable projects in the Maldives.
