Kyocera Supplies Solar Power Generating System to International Airport in Palau

Kyocera has delivered a system, which generates solar power, for an international airport at the Republic of Palau.

Kyocera provided the solar power generating system on the parking structure of the Palau International Airport

This 226.8 kW solar generating system is the main project to be installed on the island nation, which is situated approximately 500 mi. towards the eastern part of the Philippines. Wakachiku Construction and Kyocera have made a joint partnership for designing and implementing the parking lot solar project, which was funded by the Official Development Assistance (ODA) of the Japanese government in order to assist in the development of the country.

The company has installed solar modules on the top section of the parking lot’s shading structures. This solar power generating system is the first nation’s grid-connected system and has included 1,080 Kyocera solar modules, with a capacity of 210 W.

Due to the high presence of typhoons on the island, additional support bars have strengthened the solar modules’ backside in order to improve the resistance against wind pressure. The company is anticipating that this solar system will generate a power output of 250MWh per annum and offset approximately 80 t of Carbon dioxide per year.

Johnson Toribiong, President of Palau and other officials held the opening ceremony during November 2011.
