Jamaica Public Service Company Limited (JPS) is seeking applications for the engineering, procurement, and construction services for a 115 MW utility-scale solar plant, a 171.5 MWh battery energy storage system, and a 12 MW wind plant at unspecified locations in the Caribbean country.

JPS, the state-owned utility company, recently announced the auction for various solar, battery, and wind projects. The projects include a 115 MW solar plant, multiple battery energy storage systems (1 to 50 MW each, totalling 171.5 MWh), and a 12 MW onshore wind facility.

The tender documents outline the specifications, with the solar and battery systems expected to commence operations in Q4 2026, the wind project in Q4 2027, and locations yet to be determined.

The energy generated will be sold to JPS on an energy tariff basis, evaluated based on the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE).
