4 FAQs about Mauritius s new energy supporting energy storage policy

Why is battery energy storage system being introduced in Mauritius?

The CEB is introducing a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) on its network to arrest the fluctuation inherent to Variable Renewable Energy (VRE) systems. This is due to the increasing share of VRE in Mauritius' energy mix, as the country's energy transition to a low carbon economy gains momentum.

What is the long-term energy policy of Mauritius?

In April 2007, the Government of Mauritius adopted the ‘Outline of the Energy Policy 2007-2025 - Towards a Coherent Energy Policy for the Development of the Energy Sector in Mauritius’. This document outlines the Government’s long-term vision for the energy sector.

How will Mauritius transition to a low carbon economy?

Mauritius is transitioning to a low carbon economy, with the Central Electricity Board (CEB) installing the first grid-scale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). This is the first of its kind in Mauritius and enables high capacity storage of renewable energy in the grid.

Is the energy strategy in Mauritius sustainable?

The energy strategies in Mauritius, which have been demand-driven without incentives to reduce demand, can no longer be sustainable. It is the duty and responsibility of the Government to work towards decreasing carbon dioxide emissions in light of environmental issues.
