About

Founded in 2022, TwInSolar is a ngo headquartered in Le Tampon, France specializing in Solar.

TwInSolar is a Horizon Europe-funded project aimed at bridging research gaps on solar energy to enable massive integration in non-interconnected island territories. The project focuses on solar forecasting, smart microgrid development, and energy management systems specifically designed for tropical and remote island environments. Led by the University of La Reunion with partnerships including the Technical University of Denmark and Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy, the project addresses unique challenges faced by island grids requiring stability and energy balance with high intermittent renewable penetration. The project runs through November 2025 and emphasizes knowledge sharing, capacity building, and policy dialogue for clean energy transition in European outermost regions and islands.
