The solar lights pilot project in Tavua was set up by CBS Power Solutions with joint funding provided by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and the Ministry of Local Government Urban Development, Housing and Environment.
The project cost $25,320.
This report was prepared by Ridgeway Capital Projects Limited and Empower Consultant Limited for the Palau Energy Office as the implementing partner for The United Nations Development Program. With 99.3% of its electricity being produced from diesel based generation, Palau is exposed to the risk of volatile and rising electricity prices. As fuel costs comprise almost two thirds of all operating expenses, any rise in the price of diesel has a consequent impact on required tariffs. There are a number of alternatives to diesel generation of electricity for Palau.

Final description of the solar proposal for ADMIRE Initiative in the Marshall Islands.
This report is prepared by the International Institute for Energy Conservation (IIEC) for the Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (REEEP) partnership. The objective of this study is to analyse the characteristics of major appliance and lighting products and markets in Papua New Guinea (PNG), in order to inform and support decision making on the most suitable Standards & Labelling (S&L) strategy for PNG.
The overall objective is to support the socio-economic development of four rural communities in the Rigo
district in the Central Province (Kalo, Mt. Brown-Ward 8, Keapera, Saroa-Keina Villages) and to reduce their vulnerability against
climate change impacts through the provision of reliable, sustainable and clean energy.
This report was prepared by the International Renewable Energy Agency. IRENA, in collaboration with its members and other key development partners, will continue to support the development national roadmaps and strategies aimed at enhanced deployment of renewables in the Pacific and other island states and territories. The report consists of an overview roadmap framework and 15 island-specific studies on the respective energy situations, and the challenges and opportunities for renewable energy deployment, around the region.
This report was prepared by the International Institute for Energy Conservation for the Renewable Energy and Efficiency Partnership. The objective of this study is to analyse the characteristics of major appliance and lighting products and markets in Marshall Islands, in order to inform and support decision making on the most effective Standards & Labelling (S&L) strategy for Marshall Islands. The data gathered includes information on appliance brands, country of manufacture and origin.
This report was prepared by the Ecocnomic Development Division of the Pacific Community and was funded by the European Union. It summarises the results of household surveys undertaken in outer islands of the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) to provide a baseline against which to measure the socio-economic impact of the North Pacific ACP Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Project (North-REP).
This report was prepared by the Ministry of Resources & Development OIES of Marshall Islands. This strategy for outer island electrification is part of the overall Strategic Plan of the Ministry of Resources and Development. Its aim is to provide a practical tool for the Marshallese authorities to establish priorities and prepare actions to ensure a successful and sustainable access to and use of electricity in the country’s outer islands and rural areas.
This report is compiled by Arieta Gonelevu, Energy Specialist, Secretariat of the Pacific Community and major contributions from the rest of the ADMIRE-North REP Energy Survey Team for Ailuk, Utrik, Maloelap and Aur Atolls. The views expressed in this report is mainly the team’s observations and information gathered during the survey trip.

This report was prepared by Gerhard Zieroth under the PIEPSAP Project. During the PIEPSAP consultations, the stakeholders repeatedly expressed the need to explore the option to use locally produced coconut oil as a substitute fuel. Both the Minister of Resources and Development and the Minster of Public Works are particularly interested in decentralized coconut oil extraction that is seen to open a range of opportunities for economic development of the outer islands. It would contribute to rural income poverty alleviation and economic development.
This project was a joint initiative by the Government of RMI, MEC, UNDP and SOPAC. The objective of the study is to determine the feasibility of the use of coconut products for electricity generation in rural atoll communities in the Marshall Islands as a strategy for import substitution and to enable rural communities to participate in value-adding economic activities while creating jobs in the non-formal sector as well as improving and sustaining their livelihoods.
