Circular 21/150
Inform Plus proposed 5 pillars
- Component 1: Environmental Governance
- Component 2: Monitoring and field data collection for environmental standards and standardised environmental indicators
- Component 3: Data management utilising the Pacific Island Network Portal (PEP). Production of information products for decision makers based on existing data sets.
- Component 4: Enhance and expand GIS use for data collection, analysis and presentation to inform decision makers
Pacific Regional Solid Waste Management Strategy 2010 – 2015
This list of indicators was developed through the Inform project at SPREP for use by Pacific Islands countries (PICs) to meet their national and international reporting obligations. The indicators are typically adopted by PICs for their State of Environment reports and are intended to be re-used for a range of MEA and SDG reporting targets. The indicators have been designed to be measurable and repeatable so that countries can track key aspect of environmental health over time.
This publication ‘Strategic Environmental Assessment – Guidelines for Pacific Island Countries and
Territories’ has been prepared to provide guidance on the application of SEA as a tool to support
environmental planning, policy and informed decision making. It provides background on the use and
benefits of SEA as well as providing tips and guiding steps on the process, including case studies, toolkits
and checklists for conducting an SEA in the Appendices.
Consists of information on gender issues mainly violence against women and girls using evidence, data and knowledge gathered from in Pacific Island Countries.
Pacific environments require global commitments to sustainable consumption and production because waste and pollution produced elsewhere is transported into and impacts the Pacific region. This factsheet highlights briefly the consumption and production practices that affect Pacific environments and species directly and indirectly
Fact Sheet - Pacific tourism depends on healthy marine ecosystems for aesthetic appeal and for the ecosystem services that support human occupation. This fact sheet links it to SDGs and brief background info on how the Pacific island countries face challenges in planning for sustainable development of infrastructure as well as sea and land uses related to tourism
Consists of KEY INDICATORS for Asia and the Pacific 2012 and an additional Chapter on Green Urbanization in Asia
Report prepared for the Government of the Cook Islands and funded by the Government of New Zealand. This report is the result of investigation of the current power system on Aitutaki and institutional arrangements for the future direction of Aitutaki Power Supply (APS). The report outlines an overall power sector plan addressing short, medium and long term issues including use of renewable energy technologies to supplement or replace diesel generation.This project has five main objectives which are as follows:
Provided are scanned pages of chapter 27 the of the Tonga annual trade reports from 2002 to 2009. The years 2008 and 2009 have dataset available in Excel and PDF.
Samoa transport data. Data collected by Mr Herbet Wade, consultant for the SPREP PIGGAREP Project. Data collected in 2012, purpose of project is to collect transport data of all sectors & determine how renewable sources & ultimately technology can be used to offset fuel imports. Record holds several attachments on :
- Samoa Shipping Corporation Ships
- Local aircraft's
Summary Record of the PEAG 5th Meeting outcomes 2015
Development partners are working with the GoT to develop and implement the Tonga Energy Road Map. The relevant target established as part of the Tonga Energy Road Map is to achieve a 50% reduction in diesel consumption. This is considered technically feasible by 2014/15, through a combination of demand side management (DSM), efficiency improvements (loss reduction) at Tonga Power Limited (TPL) and introducing grid connected renewable energy supply. However, there are constraints to achieving this target that will need to be managed.

The report was prepared by Bruce Clay for the Government of the Cook Islands. This power study has been executed by the Energy Division, Ministry of Works, Government of Cook Islands to asses the current power status on Manihiki, provide a power sector plan and investigate the feasibility of supplementing and in the long term replacing the present diesel generation system with local renewable energy.
This report was prepared by Herbert Wade for the Office of the Promotion of Renewable Energy Technologies within the Fiji Department of Energy.
This short report was prepared by Hebert Wade for OPRET under the Fiji Department of Energy. A Renewable Energy Service Company (RESCO) is a relatively simple business since it has a narrow focus and a clearly defined scope. But creating a business plan for even a simple business is time consuming and a lot of work. The most important reason, is that making a business plan forces you to determine, closely examine and understand the important questions concerning the proposed business. Creating a business plan helps to bring the benefits and problems of the proposed business into focus.

The Government of Fiji (Fiji Department of Energy) Solar Home Lighting Systems (SHS) project utilizes solar photovoltaic technology for the provision of electricity to the rural sector. It is an expansion to the current RESCO project being implemented in that the number of solar home systems installed and maintained by government at an affordable service fee has increased from 1371 to 5800.
