Engie North America has decided to cancel the Puako solar and storage project in the USA.
The decision was taken due to elevated interconnection costs coupled with global supply chain and production issues, as well as tariffs and trade disputes specifically affecting the photovoltaic solar industry. The 60 MWac solar plus 240 MWh battery storage facility was awarded by Hawaiian Electric Co. in May 2020.
NHOA was appointed to supply the battery storage system and act as a full storage solution provider and system integrator, as a subcontractor to ENGIE.
