With the upcoming reintegration of the BESS and solar farms by December, Niue is poised to move closer to its goal of 80% renewable energy production by the end of 2025. The Ministry now has both old and new power stations available to ensure consistent energy delivery to. The solar PV project, situated in the Benban area, Aswan Governorate--a region already well known for its solar PV prowess via the 1. 8GW Benban project--will be accompanied by a 600MWh battery energy storage system (BESS). AMEA will also expand its 500MW Abydos solar PV power plant, currently under. The Ministry of Infrastructure celebrated the so5 launch of Niue's New Power Sta;on on the 7th November 2024. This funding has allowed the Ministry to repair the grid control system. The new policy has already applied, and impacts billions in funding from the European Investment Bank on renewable projects including standalone and co-located storage.
