Introduction
In July 2020, former President Moise announced that the government would add 190 MW of generating capacity, including 130MW of solar projects and 60MW of thermal power facilities. The largest planned project was a 55MW (60MW installed) fuel-flexible plant in Port-au-Prince. Haiti has an installed capacity of 250 to 400 Megawatts (MW) but only 60 percent of the installed capacity is reliable, as many generation units and grid elements need rehabilitation and repair work. The answer is clear: The collaboration between ZL and Build Health International (BHI)— to replace and improve the solar panels atop Hôpital Universitaire de Mirebalais (HUM) —is key to energy self-sufficiency at the site, allowing for a stable, reliable source of electricity. Haitai Solar entered the photovoltaic power station field in 2017,holding a Class II Qualification for General Contracting of Power Engineering and a Class III Qualification for Power Facility Installation,Repair,and Decoration. With only 33% of urban households connected to the grid—and a shocking 5% in rural areas—the country's been trapped in a vicious cycle of diesel dependency.
