A Solar PV system of 330kWp and 60kWp has been installed in HA. Hoarafushi and Molhaadhoo of the same atoll respectively by Ministry of Environment and Energy. 

The Solar PV system is expected to cut down the consumption of approximately 154,084 litres of diesel in an 8 month period in Hoarafushi and about 27,565 litres of diesel consumption in an 18 month period in Molhaadhoo. 

A Photovoltic (PV) system converts the sun’s radiation, in the form of light, into usable electricity. Ministry of Environment believes that this installation would greatly reduce fuel consumption and minimise the harmful emissions associated with it.
