Bringing Clean, Reliable Energy to São Tomé and Príncipe
Through AMP, a community in São Tomé and Príncipe will pilot the direct commissioning of 0.7 MW of solar photovoltaic capacity and 1.0 MWh of battery storage, laying the foundation for
São Tomé is an ideal location for solar energy. Solar panels can be installed in existing buildings or in stand alone 20 foot containers with the help of Offgridinstaller, who can supply and fit any size of solar system with high quality lithium ion battery storage which can generate and power year round storage.
The famous volcanic plug 'Pico Cao Grande' is 663 m high and popular with tourists. The main island, Sao Tome, has most of the 200,000 population, while Principe has only 8,000 people. The islands total 1,000 km2.
Electricity and water are provided by the state owned Empresa de Agua e Electricides (EMAE). EMAE generates 61,380 mWhrs of consumption of which 91% (60,000) is from fossil fuels and 9% (6,000 hrs) is from a small hydro plant.
