Most of CEB's thermal power stations are located in the vicinity of the Port Area in Port Louis on account of on-shore fuel handling facilities which are readily available for unloading of fuel. Mauritius has a good solar regime, with a potential average annual solar radiation value of some 6 kWh/m²/day.
Mauritius has a nominal installed capacity of 876.76 MW, out of which 498.47 MW are from CEB generating units and the remaining 378.29 MW are from Independent Power Producers, Medium Scale Distributed Generators and Small Scale Distributed Generators. In 2018, the total energy generated amounted to 2,827.6 GWh.

The history of electricity in Mauritius since the 1880s involves the continuous self-reinvention to meet the growing demand for affordable and environmentally sustainable energy. The C.E.B. (Central Electricity Board), established in 1952, has played a significant role in this history. This history also includes dealing with unexpected challenges from Mother Nature.
An energy storage system (ESS) for electricity generation uses electricity (or some other energy source, such as solar-thermal energy) to charge an energy storage system or device, which is discharged to supply (generate) electricity when needed at desired levels and quality. These facilities require efficient operation and management functions, including data collection capabilities, system control, and management capabilities. The ability to store energy. . By definition, a battery energy storage system (BESS) is an electrochemical apparatus that uses a battery to store and distribute electricity. discharging the electricity to its end consumer.
