The United States has awarded a $400 million contract, equivalent to 1.6 billion Kina, for the construction of a large fuel storage facility near Port Moresby Harbor in Papua New Guinea. This initiative, managed by the Department of Defense, will provide storage for over 1.6 million barrels of fuel.
US Ambassador Ann Marie Yastishock announced that the investment was initiated in response to a formal request from the PNG Government. She highlighted that the facility would not only meet the country's fuel storage demands but also enhance the diversity of fuel options available in the market.
On Friday, the U.S. Army wrapped up the two-week Tamiok Strike exercise in the capital city of Port Moresby and several other locations. Among the training events were staff planning exercises, medical training, infantry tactics drills and a construction project.
Situated at the Dunamenti Power Station in Százhalombatta, the new battery energy storage system builds on MET Group's earlier 4 MW / 8 MWh demonstrator plant installed in 2022 using Tesla Megapack 2 technology. The investment will cost just over EUR 5 million and the site is in Litér (western Hungary, near Veszprém). Mavir. . The country's National Energy Strategy initially set a target of 6 GW of solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity by 2030 – a goal that seemed ambitious at the time. By 2025, however, that threshold had already been surpassed, with gross installed PV capacity exceeding 9 GW. This milestone marks a significant step in our European expansion, reinforcing our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and energy efficiency.
