50 kW Split-Phase PV System for a Hotel in Jamaica

The beautiful islands of the Caribbean experience hurricane season every year, posing ongoing challenges to local infrastructure. Especially in tourism paradises like Jamaica, known for its sunny beaches and stunning sea views, power systems often fail during storms, leaving many hotels unable to provide hot water and air conditioning normally. For vacationers, enjoying the natural scenery while facing frequent blackouts, lack of hot water, and cooling equipment can seriously impact their stay and overall travel satisfaction. Maintaining a stable power supply is not only a basic service for the hotel industry but also directly affects Jamaica’s reputation as a holiday destination and the overall experience of visitors.

Mr. John was facing exactly this kind of frustration. He said that while searching for solar power systems on Google, he was drawn to the website of sunchees Energy. Our site featured a large number of feedback images from installation projects for Jamaican clients—exactly what he needed to find a company with local service. He wanted a local installation team and a range of customs clearance services.

After receiving his inquiry, our sales manager Ms. Danny promptly set up a video call. She first demonstrated that we are a professional manufacturing factory, with every component of the system produced under strict standards, which began to earn John’s trust. Mr. John then explained that he runs a hotel which often loses power during hurricane season, leaving guests without air conditioning or hot water and leading to numerous complaints and cancellations.

The hotel is fully equipped with 10 air conditioners, water heaters in each room, refrigerators, lights, TVs, and other appliances. Considering that Jamaica’s electrical system uses split-phase 110V and 220V power—where refrigerators and air conditioners run on 220V, and lights, TVs, and other loads use 110V—we proposed a 50KW solar system with two 25KW inverters connected in parallel. This allows all the client’s loads to operate simultaneously.

After comparing our design with proposals from other factories, Mr. John came back to us and said our design was the most reasonable and exactly what he wanted. Although our price was slightly higher than others, he valued quality and service over cost alone. He ultimately confirmed the order with us. As the shipment was nearing Jamaica, our installation team had already contacted the client to arrange installation. Once the goods arrived, our installation engineers completed the system setup within five days and successfully powered all the hotel’s equipment.
