This report shows how Maldives can switch to hybrid renewable mini-grid energy systems to reduce its heavy dependency on imported fossil fuel, slice emissions, and support sustainable and inclusive growth. It shows how the ADB-backed Preparing Outer Islands for Sustainable Energy Development (POISED) project worked with utilities to install hybrid energy generation alongside advanced battery storage and management systems for Maldives' outer islands. Setting out the social, economic, and environmental benefits of a shift to hybrid systems, the report explains how other climate vulnerable countries could follow suit and use similar low-carbon technologies to improve their energy security.
