Government of Guyana commissioned its second mega-scale solar farm, the 1.5 MW utility-scale solar PV plant at Bartica, Region Seven (Cuyuni-Mazaruni) in March 2023. At twenty-two (22) off-grid locations, GEA installed over 163 kWp of solar PV capacity and 800 kWh of battery energy storage.
GEA supported the implementation of a massive electrification project to supply, deliver and distribute 30,000 Solar Home Energy Systems to Hinterland and riverine communities in Guyana. A total of 26,398 units were distributed as of December 2023.
GEA's energy progress has helped to address rising electricity demands and enhanced access to renewable energy supply across local communities. GEA supported the implementation of a massive electrification project to supply, deliver and distribute 30,000 Solar Home Energy Systems to Hinterland and riverine communities in Guyana.
The Guyana Energy Agency continues to support national efforts in transforming the country's sustainable low-carbon pathway and the energy sector as it contributes to providing cleaner, affordable energy access for all, as well as promoting energy efficiency and conservation practices. – END –
