Hi Sunny,
In our design brief, we mentioned that ‘To supplement energy sourced from the power station, many residential and commercial buildings on Saibai are fitted with solar hot water systems.’ However, we don’t have any specific information about the extent of installation.
Use of renewable sources of electricity was a viable option considered in Saibai for a long time. I suggest you do some background reading of the Sustainable Land Use Plan Part 2 Saibai (2012) uploaded in our Resources Section.
There are also independent suppliers that have assessed the potential of solar panels in Sabai. Click here to see an example.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Jean
