60% Renewable by 2030 in Mauritius : What It Means for Your Rooftop ?

5 min read

Mauritius aims for 60% renewable energy by 2030, and with Grubbs Energy, you can turn sunlight into savings while powering a cleaner, greener island.

Mauritius is on the cusp of something BIG !

Picture this: an island powered by the sun, where clean energy lights up homes, businesses, and communities. It’s not just a dream, it’s THE plan. The Ministry of Public Utilities launched the Renewable Energy Roadmap 2030 to make Mauritius a leader in sustainable energy. 

And the best part…

Every Mauritian can play a role in this green revolution. Let’s dive into how this bold vision is coming to life and how you can be part of it with the help of local heroes like Grubbs Energy.

The Roadmap for a Greener Mauritius

Back in 2019, the government set out a plan to transform how Mauritius generates electricity. The original goal was to hit 35% renewable energy by 2025. Sadly, as of 2024, renewable energy amounted to only 18.2% of our production, well below what the government had planned. 

But now the stakes are even higher: 60% renewable energy by 2030 and a complete phase-out of coal in electricity generation. That’s a game-changer for an island that’s long relied on fossil fuels.

This isn’t just about big power plants or government policies. It’s about everyday Mauritians (families, small businesses, & communities) coming together to make clean energy a reality. The Central Electricity Board (CEB) is leading the charge with schemes that make it easier for everyone to go solar. 

Already, over 5,000 small-scale projects, from rooftop solar panels to EV charging stations, are feeding 16 MW of clean energy into the national grid. That’s the equivalent of powering thousands of homes with the sun!

What Mauritius’ Energy Shift Means for You ?

Switching to renewable energy isn’t just about saving the planet (though that’s a huge win). It’s about saving money, gaining energy independence, and building a brighter future for Mauritius. 

Whether you’re a homeowner looking to cut your electricity bill or a business owner aiming to go green, the Roadmap has something for everyone.

Here’s what’s on the table:

  • For households: The government is rolling out solar PV kits for vulnerable families, plus installations for low-income homes with free monthly electricity units. Real support for those who need it most.
  • For businesses: The CEB has approved multiple solar projects in the commercial and industrial sectors, with competitive tariffs to make the switch affordable.

Plus, this shift is expected to create 7,000 green jobs by 2030, opening doors for young Mauritians to build careers in a growing industry.
