The role of the C.E.B

During the last week end of the 2010 Football Worldcup final, the local TV showed that Mauritians could soon sell there excess power generated through renewable sources to the CEB (the national power company) with the coming Grid Code. It was also concluding the one year test it had been conducted.

What we would expect from the CEB now, is that it produces a list of authorised MANUFACTURERS and not SUPPLIERS for the grid-tie inverters and solar panels. As the CEB is the entity which owns the grid it will ensure that the power produced is compliant to its norms and safety regulations. Thus preventing cheap stuff from getting into the market which will not be able to perform upto the requirements or could be dangerous.
