Guyana has inaugurated its largest solar-plus-storage facility, the Onderneeming plant, featuring 5 MWp of solar capacity and 7.5 MWh of battery storage. Funded through the Guyana-Norway forest conservation partnership, the US$10.4 million project increases the Essequibo coast’s power capacity to 22.5 MW. The plant is part of Guyana’s $83.8 million Utility-Scale Solar Photovoltaic (Guysol) Program, which targets 33 MWp of solar and 34 MWh of storage across eight sites under the nation’s Low Carbon Development Strategy 2030.
