Developing photovoltaic solar potential

Context

Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon relies heavily on imported fossil fuels for its electricity production. Against a backdrop of global energy transition and volatile energy prices, diversifying the energy mix is a strategic challenge for the territory.
Stakes and objectives

Evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of developing photovoltaic solar energy, taking into account local climatic conditions and power grid constraints.

The aim is to gradually reduce dependence on fossil fuels and strengthen energy autonomy.
Stakeholders

Territorial collectivity of Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon, energy services, technical experts.

Facility description

The Facility makes it possible to analyze the territory's solar potential based on local climatic data and identify the most suitable sites for the installation of photovoltaic panels.

Power grid integration scenarios are studied to assess possible production, impacts on grid stability and necessary investments.

This analysis helps to structure a more sustainable energy trajectory and support the territory's climate ambitions.

Expected deliverables
- Detailed analysis of local solar potential
- Technical and economic feasibility study
- Photovoltaic grid integration scenarios
- Investment and energy planning recommendations
