520kW Island Microgrid + Battery Storage
Maldives (private island) · Luxury resort operator
Modules Supplied
1,182 × JUSTSOLAR Mono 440W + JUSTSOLAR Commercial BESS 100kWh (12 units)
Challenge
Remote island resort running entirely on diesel generators at $0.35/kWh. Salt-mist exposure causing corrosion on previous solar installations. Limited installation space (island is <1 hectare). Resort needed 24/7 reliability for guest experience. Battery had to meet international fire safety codes for tourist areas.
Solution
Complete turnkey system: corrosion-resistant dual-glass modules with anodized aluminum frames, 12 LiFePO4 battery modules with integrated fire suppression, hybrid inverters with automatic diesel/battery/solar management. Modules mounted on marine-grade aluminum structures. Commissioned in 8 weeks including ocean freight and offshore logistics.
Results
Reduced diesel consumption by 87% in first year. Fuel savings alone paid for the system in 3.1 years. Zero downtime during commissioning monsoon season. Salt-mist corrosion testing after 24 months shows no degradation. Resort featured project in their sustainability marketing.
