Mauke Solar Mini-grid and Electricity Upgrade

A solar mini-grid designed to supply around 95% of Mauke's electricity, with upgrades to the powerhouse, generators, battery storage and distribution network — part of the Southern Group renewable programme completed in 2019.

Mauke’s renewable-energy system combined solar generation, battery storage and upgrades to the powerhouse, generators and distribution network, cutting reliance on imported diesel and improving the reliability of electricity services. The budget figure is an indicative planning estimate from the national infrastructure plan, not a confirmed final cost.
