Soventix commissions 30-MW solar power installation in Dominican Republic
Soventix, a German solar energy company, has commissioned a 30-megawatt solar power facility in Monte Plata province, Dominican Republic. It is the first phase of a larger project and will supply the national grid.
The governments of Taiwan and the Netherlands invested in the project, which is expected to begin production in February.
Another 30 megawatts will be added in the second phase of the project, making it the largest photovoltaic installation in the region.
According to a statement issued by the ministry of energy and mines of Dominican Republic, about 120,000 solar panels and 30 MW inverters will be deployed at the project costing $60 million. The entire project will be spread on two hectares, the release added.

Dominican Republic
DOMINICAN REPUBLIC - 88 MWP
STRENGTHS
Island location with less access to energy resources
Good mid-size radiation
Strong and stable economic growth; tourist industry
Stable government
PPA?s with utilities and large scale consumers are possible
Long term PPA?s showing stable prices
OPPORTUNITIES
Market offers interesting business opportunities for solar PV, as only 20 MW have been realized until today
Energy price is already high and much higher energy prices are expected
Dominican Republic predicts a growth of 5-6% in energy demand over the next 10 years and shows huge problems in implementing conventional energy production solutions due to local resistance
