Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

In October 2021, China procured, delivered, and installed two diesel generators to Kiribati. On April 28, 2022, a handover ceremony was held for the generators. On May 12th, 2023, one of these generators was successfully commissioned at Bikenibeu power station. The generator is initially operating on base load, and will gradually increase the output after ongoing adjustments. The generators will help with power outages in Kiribati.
