Solar for Rural & Remote Island Sites

Rural and remote island sites stand to gain significantly from solar technologies, enabling on-site renewable energy generation, power local facilities directly, and reduce dependence on mainland energy supply.

Typical solar deployments on rural or isolated island sites feature Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), rooftop photovoltaic arrays, and solar-powered outdoor lighting. For projects seeking advanced integration, Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV)—including solar roof tiles and façade cladding—deliver high-performance solutions that merge energy efficiency with architectural design.

OVERVIEW OF SOLAR TECHNOLOGIES FOR RURAL & REMOTE SITES

Rural and remote island sites can achieve substantial energy independence through solar technologies. By generating fully renewable electricity onsite, facilities can be powered directly without relying on mainland energy subsidies or costly imports.

Reduce Operational Cost

Solar energy significantly lowers electricity bills, freeing up budget for other important local initiatives

Lower Carbon Emission

Transitioning to clean energy helps communities meet climate goals and demonstrate environmental leadership

Multiple Energy Sources

With BESS technology, communities can store energy from multiple sources for smarter power redistribution: solar, wind, hydro, fuel and grid

Sustainable & Expandable Energy Solution

From rooftop solar panels and solar-powered lighting to Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), communities can implement solar solutions ranging from small private installations to large-scale public programs



BIPV Solar Cladding

Buildings can be cladded with BIPV materials, instead of traditional glass – achieving highly efficient solar collection as well as meeting architectural aesthetic



Solar BIPV Roof Integration

Buildings can adopt solar BIPV roofing technology to collect solar power, as well as providing aesthetically attractive architectural cladding, fully integrated with building roof infrastructure



Solar Parks

Solar panels can be implemented on roof structure or ground coverage, allowing communities to collect energy through its unused spaces



Solar Lighting

Ground lighting can be powered completely by solar, delivering super low maintenance and super low cost lighting solution – applicable to roads, fields and security lights
