Renewables milestone reached in Antarctica
The British Antarctic Survey (BAS) has installed and activated two solar photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage systems in Antarctica as part of our commitment to reach net zero by 2040.
Solar power
The Remote Area Power Supply (RAPS) units can generate power from 3 sources — petrol, solar and wind — and store it in batteries. They are housed in self-contained, weatherproof accommodation.
