St. Eustatius Solar + Storage

Bithenergy, in partnership with Power52, developed and constructed a 5-megawatt solar generation facility paired with 12 megawatt-hours of battery energy storage on the island of St. Eustatius.

Island residents were trained to construct, operate and maintain the system, creating long-term skilled employment. Battery storage ensures 24/7 power availability, grid balancing and backup capability during outages. Over 20% of the island's power now comes from clean, renewable energy generated on-site.

The project is a flagship example of community-first clean energy development, combining resilient infrastructure, environmental justice and inclusive economic growth. Bithenergy and Power52 are building on this success with a 1.2 MW solar + 4 MWh storage project in Anegada, BVI.
