In Guyana, solar energy is used for several purposes, including drying agricultural produce, irrigation, ICT, and to improve electricity access in rural areas. Under the Hinterland Electrification Programme, in excess of 19,000 solar PV systems had been installed in nearly 200 communities by 2018.
As a result, most locations across Guyana have excellent solar insolation levels and are ideal for solar PV generation. As at 2018, the total installed capacity for Solar PV in Guyana is 4.63 MW with an estimated annual generation of 7.16 GWh.
In addition, 1.184 MW of solar PV systems will be installed at 80 public buildings in all 10 Administrative Regions of Guyana in 2019. These installations will result in estimated savings of G$114 million and avoiding 1,415 tons of CO 2 emissions per year.
Guyana is currently dependent on imported petroleum-based fuels as its main source of energy.
The global commercial and industrial solar energy storage battery market is experiencing unprecedented growth, with demand increasing by over 400% in the past three years. Large-scale battery storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial solar installations worldwide. North America leads with a 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability goals and federal investment tax credits that reduce total system costs by 30-35%.
