Eritrea Energy Storage Project Case Powering Sustainable
Eritrea"s energy storage projects demonstrate how smart technology investments can power sustainable development. By combining solar energy with advanced storage solutions,
The world is at the tipping point for bolder steps and immediate aggressive actions. Eritrea, a country with negligible emission contribution, can potentially lead the way to secure a safe and sustainable future by taking a different path from previous development trajectories.
Consequently, Eritrea's energy transition should be informed by multidimensional pathways that respond to diverse realities and are critical to sustaining implementation and adaptability. The world is at the tipping point for bolder steps and immediate aggressive actions.
Energy in Eritrea is an industry lacking in natural resources, though it has plenty of potential. Eritrea's final consumption of electricity is 33 kilotonne of oil equivalent (ktoe). In 2019, some off-the-grid community systems rely on a combination of solar power, diesel generators and grid batteries.
Eritrea has two hybrid mini-grids (solar-diesel) with a total capacity of 2.25 MW. One is in the town of Areza with a production capacity of 1.25 MW; another is in Maidma with a production capacity of 1 MW. Both use photovoltaic solar panels connected to lithium batteries.
