Billion Electric Group, in partnership with Taiwanese companies, has set up solar power and battery storage systems in Palau, Tuvalu, and the Marshall Islands. The project includes 495 kWp of solar panels and 1,997 kWh of battery storage, helping reduce dependence on imported fossil fuels. These modular microgrids provide reliable clean energy for agriculture, aquaculture, and local communities. The initiative is expected to cut carbon emissions by 800 metric tons each year. Aquaculture centers and demo farms now meet over 50% of their energy needs from renewables, while livestock farms, offices, and dormitories run entirely on green energy, lowering costs and environmental impact.

Tim Chen, President & CEO of Billion Electric Group, said “We develop flexible and scalable microgrid solutions for diverse applications, enabling the energy transition in off-grid and remote regions. By fostering local service teams and forming global partnerships, we ensure system reliability, accelerate green energy adoption, and enhance grid resilience.”

Billion Electric Group handles everything from research and manufacturing to system integration and deployment. The project uses high-quality Taiwanese technology, including Billion’s Fusio series battery storage, Giga series solar inverters, and an AI-powered energy management system. This system optimizes power use in real-time, supports two-way energy flow, and offers cloud-based monitoring for better grid stability and efficiency. It prioritizes solar energy and features black start capability, allowing diesel generators to restart automatically during power failures. With established operations in Japan and Australia, Billion Electric Group plans to deploy 50 MW of energy storage systems and expand into Southeast Asia and the Middle East.
