The Government of the Republic of Palau has re-opened a request for proposal (RfP) for a dispatchable solar PV project despite originally awarding the capacity and signing a power purchase agreement (PPA) with a subsidiary of French firm ENGIE in what had been dubbed as the world's largest microgrid.
The small island nation of Palau in the western Pacific Ocean has moved a step closer to having what is said to be the largest ever microgrid spanning diesel, solar and battery energy storage.
