Demand Side Management Project : Review and report on the current status of DSM activities within SOPAC member country electric power utilities; determine the most appropriate technologies and methodology for the implementation of a DSM programme; prepare a detailed programme design; and the implementation, management and reporting for at least three demonstration DSM projects.
Economic Potential of Renewable Energy : Full feasibility studies of applicable / possible renewable energy projects for the region.
COCOGEN Project : A number of Pacific Island countries have started to consider biofuels as a strategic renewable energy option. First successful trials to use straight coconut oil (CNO) have been undertaken in Fiji, Marshall Islands New Caledonia and Vanuatu. Both the University of the South Pacific and the University of Papua New Guinea have started scientific research on the subject. In general opportunities exist to utilize CNO and other vegetable oils as an alternative fuel for transport and electricity generation. Thus the objectives of this project were to;

Biofuel Energy Options : Biofuel energy options for the region have become more relevant as the trend for the price of crude oil continues upward. There has been a consequent increase in interest in evaluating the viability of alternative fuel options, especially locally-produced biofuels. SOPAC in its technical advisory capacity has continued to monitor progress and to distribute factual information on research findings and international development in the sector through its website and e-mail user group list.
Pacific Islands Energy Policy and Strategic Action Planning (PIEPSAP) : Improved development and management of national energy sectors. The PIEPSAP Project PIEPSAP has
progressed now to a point where vertical national integration and horizontal regional integration becomes clearly visible. By way of example of vertical integration the policy

This proposal has been prepared for the consideration of senior officials and Minsters at the SPC-convened Energy and Transport Ministers Meeting being held in Nadi from 31 March to 4 April 2014. It has been developed by ESCAP with the assistance of Dr. Herbert Wade, an independent consultant who undertook missions to Tuvalu (21-25 January 2014), Kiribati (26 January to 2 February 2014), and Vanuatu (4 - 7 February, 2014) 1 to help determine the feasibility of the PRDR through interviews with key stakeholders in those countries.
The Pacific Regional Data Repository for Sustainable Energy for All (PRDR SE4ALL) is going to be a one-stop-shop that will support the many partners, one team approach to addressing the energy security challenges of the region,' according to Mr Gerald Zackios, Director of SPC?s North Pacific Regional Office. He was speaking at the opening of the PRDR consultation workshop held in Pohnpei, Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) last week.
