Saint Lucia is preparing to launch a call for proposals for a 10 MW solar project coupled with a 13 MW battery energy storage system. The project, which will be strategically located at the Hewanorra International Airport in Vieux Fort, is slated for tender in 2025. St Lucia Electricity Services (LUCELEC) plans to tender a 10 MW solar plus storage project in St Lucia. The project, which will be the island's second industrial-scale solar initiative, includes 10 MW of solar power and an energy storage system with 13 MW capacity using. . Looking toward future research—based on the literature and input from reviewers, the primary aspects of solar installation projects that may impact workers and workforce requirements fall into three major categories: (1) project features (technical aspects and ownership/funding), (2) regional. .
