What is the Timor-Leste solar power project?
The Project involves the construction and 25-year operation of a new power plant in Manatuto, Timor-Leste, comprising a 72 MW solar power plant co-located with a 36 MW/36 MWh battery energy storage system. This will be the country’s first full-scale renewable energy IPP project.
Does Timor-Leste need a roof-top solar energy system?
In addition, most of Timor-Leste's electricity is generated through costly and polluting diesel generators. 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.

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.
How has Timor-Leste benefited from a power purchase agreement (PPA)?
This landmark project included drafting and negotiating a power purchase agreement (PPA) and an implementation agreement with the Ministry of Finance, marking a significant step in Timor-Leste’s transition to renewable energy and the modernisation of its electricity infrastructure. José de Ponte, Partner in DLA Piper’s Finance practice, commented:
Does Timor-Leste have a demand for solar?
3 MDF survey on understanding demand for solar in Dili, Timor-Leste. Timor-Leste’s rooftop PV solar industry is new and undeveloped. Limited availability of maintenance and spare parts inhibits some businesses from switching to solar.
