Creating A Utility Scale Solar IPP Project in Timor-Leste
First-utility scale renewable project in Timor-Leste Design, build, finance, operation and maintenance of a [72-85] MW solar photovoltaic plant (“Solar PV Plant”), a [36-42.5] MW/1 hour
José added: “The investment in Timor-Leste's solar and storage infrastructure is transformative. It will help reduce dependence on fossil fuels while improving grid stability and energy access across the country”. José de Ponte was supported by special counsel Marnie Calli, senior associate Lisa Huynh and solicitor Jeraldine Mow.
Program of the 9th Constitutional Government: The Government is committed to modernize and expand its energy system by utilizing renewable energy. Timor-Leste plans to implement 72 MW solar and 50 MW wind by 2024 and 2026 respectively. This will increase RE share in power generation from 0.2% in 2021 to 35.4% in 2030.
DLA Piper advised Eletricidade de Timor-Leste on its first utility-scale solar PV and battery storage project with a 100MW capacity, marking a major milestone in the country's renewable energy transition.
Overall, Timor-Leste's HDI has shown little improvement since 2010, while electricity access doubled to 100 %. The effects of improved electricity access on development outcomes appear less than observed internationally. Fig. 3. Timor-Leste's HDI component indices 2000–2021.
