Mauritius launches 220 MW solar and storage tender across 13 sites

SolarNews Brief

Mauritius has launched a 220 MW renewable energy tender combining solar generation with battery storage across 13 locations. The program is designed to reduce imported fossil fuel dependence and support the island nation's target of 60% renewable electricity by 2030.

SolarQuarter reports that the tender includes ten 10 MW solar installations and three 40 MW projects, all paired with battery storage to improve supply reliability. It is part of a broader 405 MW renewable pipeline and uses an e-Marketplace procurement platform developed with the World Bank and the International Solar Alliance. This is important because small island power systems need storage-backed solar procurement to lower fuel-price exposure and keep grids stable.
