This report has investigated the current power system on Atiu and the local renewable energy (RE) options available to supplement in the short to medium term and replace in the long term the current diesel generation.
In the short term refurbishment of the present diesel based system is required to ensure provision of reliable supply and minimise environmental degradation through fuel handling practises. Staff training and service equipment should be provided. Initiation of a wind monitoring programme will substantiate the available wind resource whilst investigations into the biomass will evaluate medium to long term potential.
