Renewable Energies: Timor-Leste invests in Solar Panels Just as the remaining renewable energies sources that are being explored by the Government in Timor-Leste, the photovoltaic units (or solar project) implementation project is specially directed for the families that live in remote areas, where difficulties still exist in the national

ENERGY PROFILE Timor-Leste

Solar PV: Solar resource potential has been divided into seven classes, each representing a range of annual PV output per unit of capacity (kWh/kWp/yr). The bar chart shows the proportion of a country''s land area in each of these classes and the global distribution of land area across the classes (for comparison).

6 FAQs about [Solar energy in buildings Timor-Leste]

Is there a market for roof-top solar energy systems in Timor-Leste?

Australia's Market Development Facility (MDF) and ITP Renewables conducted an assessment of the potential market for roof-top solar energy systems in Timor-Leste.

What does a solar technician do in Timor-Leste?

Technicians in Timor-Leste have experience in small-scale, off-grid solar energy systems. Commercial or industrial scale installations are more complex and appropriate technical capacity is scarce.

How long does a solar system last in Timor-Leste?

High electricity costs and readily available solar radiation mean that the average payback period for a rooftop photovoltaic (PV) solar energy system in Timor-Leste is only 1.5 to 3 years instead of the global average of 6-10 years. Transitioning to solar can also help the country meet environmental commitments.

Is Timor-Leste a good country for solar energy?

Timor-Leste has a high-quality solar resource. The global horizontal irradiance in Dili is higher than on the east coast of Australia, where the solar market is mature and installation costs are higher. The cost of electricity in Timor-Leste for commercial and industrial consumers is high compared to ASEAN countries.

Why is Timor-Leste not able to finance solar panels?

MDF research found that lenders in Timor-Leste are unwilling to lend to small and medium sized enterprises due to levels of default, perceived risks, and the dificulty of securing collateral. Evaluate the upfront costs of installing solar panels versus long-term savings. Consider financing options to determine overall economic viability.

Does Timor-Leste have electricity?

Timor-Leste has rapidly expanded electricity access to more than 83 per cent of the population but the country has yet to achieve energy security.1 Consumer costs, even with government subsidy, remain high and outages are common. In addition, most of Timor-Leste's electricity is generated through costly and polluting diesel generators.
