meeco in the final tender stage for PV project on Tortola
Experienced in pioneering and realizing clean energy projects in the Caribbean meeco has successfully entered the final round in a PV energy tender for Tortola, located in the heart of the British Virgin Islands. A renowned investment group jointly with the Government has planned a utility-scale PV project in the Cox Heath area in the west of Tortola in order to shave-off energy costs and to initiate the energy transition as a part of its National Energy Transition Strategy.
The National Energy Strategy, which involves the Territorial energy plan, stipulates near, medium and long-term measures. Cox Heath area represents one of the near-term projects. Currently, an assessment study proves the feasibility of a PV plant in this territory. The project will be arranged as a power purchase agreement (PPA). The contract stipulates that the local energy provider BVI Electricity Corporation will purchase the generated energy from the solar system provider.
A renewable energy solution shall shave-off energy costs and initiate the energy transition on the British Virgin Islands.
With our experience in realizing large-scale PV energy plants in the region, among them the 3 MWp solar plant at the V.C.Bird International Airport Antigua as well as the 4MWp Bethesda project in Antigua for Apua, we are optimistic and see ourselves as well-situated for having a fair chance with this tender. Our various, customised renewable energy solutions meet the local conditions on the island.
