Why the South Pacific island Kiribati is making a big bet on solar
Providing off-grid solar power without a central solar array can be far harder. "If you want stand-alone [solar systems], the storage is a major issue," Singh said. "The lifetime of the panels can go up to 20 years, but for the storage batteries, the lifetime is five or six years only. And that is always a major issue." Donors vs. private sector.
