China’s Sino Soar Hybrid Technology Co., Ltd. has decided to suspend power projects in three islands in the Northern Province due to security concerns raised by a thrid party.
The Chinese Embassy said in a Twitter message that the company has, instead, signed a contract with the Maldivian Government on November 19 to establish solar power plants at 12 islands in the island country.
Under this contract, 2.5MW of Solar PV, 975kW of Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) will be installed. The project is expected to avoid 2,900 tons of carbon dioxide emission annually.
