4 FAQs about Timor-Leste Valley Power Energy Storage System

What is the Timor-Leste solar power project?

The Project involves the construction and 25-year operation of a new power plant in Manatuto, Timor-Leste, comprising a 72 MW solar power plant co-located with a 36 MW/36 MWh battery energy storage system. This will be the country's first full-scale renewable energy IPP project.

Why is solar energy maintenance important in Timor-Leste?

Maintenance tends to be limited to repairing malfunctioning system components, instead of preventative care or servicing, which can reduce the effectiveness of solar energy systems and increase costs. Technicians in Timor-Leste have experience in small-scale, off-grid solar energy systems.

Why should Timor-Leste invest in solar & storage infrastructure?

José added: “The investment in Timor-Leste's solar and storage infrastructure is transformative. It will help reduce dependence on fossil fuels while improving grid stability and energy access across the country”. José de Ponte was supported by special counsel Marnie Calli, senior associate Lisa Huynh and solicitor Jeraldine Mow.

How long does a solar system last in Timor-Leste?

High electricity costs and readily available solar radiation mean that the average payback period for a rooftop photovoltaic (PV) solar energy system in Timor-Leste is only 1.5 to 3 years instead of the global average of 6-10 years. Transitioning to solar can also help the country meet environmental commitments.
