Tuvalu commits to a reduction of emissions of green-house gases from the electricity generation (power) sector, by 100% ie.e almost zero emissions by 2025. Tuvalu's indicative quantified economy-wide target for a reduction in total emissions of GHGs from the entire sector to 60% below 2010 levels by 2025. These emissions will be further reduced from the other key sectors, agriculture and waste, conditional upon the necessary technology and finance.
Tuvalu submitted their Intended nationally determined contributions (INDC) to the UNFCCC Secretariat on the 27th of November 2015.
Tonga's intended contribution are designed to be quantified at the national level cascaded to the sector level as follows:
The main mitigation contribution is to achieve the outcomes and targets under the National Energy Road Map (NERM) and Second National Communication (SNC) extended to 2030. The mitigation contribution for the Vanuatu INDC submission is a sector specific target of transitioning to close to 100% renewable energy in the electricity sector by 2030. This target would replace nearly all fossil fuel requirements for electricity generation in the country and be consistent with the National Energy Road Map (NERM) target of 65% renewable energy by 2020.

This record captures series of Samoa Annual Energy Review reports. Reviews carried out annually from 2000 - 2014 and are conducted by the Ministry of Finance - Energy Policy Coordination and Management Division. Reports were downloaded from http://www.mof.gov.ws/Services/Energy/EnergyReviews/tabid/5762/Default.aspx
This Tuvalu National Energy Policy (TNEP) is the first ever produced in an attempt to clearly define and direct current and future energy developments and usages throughout Tuvalu. TNEP was developed by the Energy Department and SOPAC following successive consultation workshops that were conducted by a Technical Assistant from SOPAC and energy stakeholders on Funafuti in 2005. The Tuvalu National Energy Policy Framework sets out the Government’s policies for the planning and management of the energy sector over the next 15 years.
This Renewable Energy Master Plan is the outcome of the Government of Tuvalu vision made in 2008 for Tuvalu to become 100% renewable energy for all its power generation by the end of 2020. The local name “Enetise Tutumau” is firmly embedded in the Tuvalu’s Energy Strategy with the goal to convert Tuvalu’s electricity generation from 100% diesel to 100% renewable energy. This document is directly linked to “Te Kakeega II 2015”, “Te Kaniva (Climate Change Policy) 2012” and the “Tuvalu National Energy Policy”.
This report was prepared by Andrew McIntyre, Brian Bell, and Solofa Uota as individual consultants under the guidance and with support of the Pacific Infrastructure Advisory Centre (PIAC) in Sydney, Australia.
Tuvalu Climate Change Policy prescribes the Government and the people of Tuvalu’s strategic polices for responding to climate change impacts and related disaster risks over the next 10 years (2012–2021). The Policy defines seven thematic goals, strategies and desired outcomes that the Government and the people of Tuvalu have prioritised for implementation to ensure that safety and resilience are achieved. The Policy is directly linked to the National Strategic Action Plan for Climate Change and Disaster Risk Management (NSAP).
Project paper objective is to support the strengthening of the institutional and regulatory framework of the Tonga Energy Roadmap. Project consist of 2 components:
- Component 1: Strengthening the Energy Sector Framework and Structure (AusAID/PRIF US$0.70 million; ASTAE US$0.40 million; GOT US$ 1.00 million. Implementing Agency: TERM-IU).
- Component 2: Preparing TPL for Renewable Energy Supply (AusAID/PRIF US$1.80 million; TPL US$0.10 million. Implementing Agency: TPL).
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 Niue Strategic Energy Road Map 2015–2025(NiSERM) builds on the 2005 Niue National Energy Policy and the Niue National Strategic Plan (NNSP) 2014–2019, and is aligned to current national, regional and international emerging issues relating to the energy sector. The Government of Niue (GoN) decided to develop the NiSERM to guide the whole-of-country approach towards achieving a vision shared by the government, public stakeholders, private operators, communities and development partners, the vision of: A sustainable and secure energy sector.
Niue National Energy Action Plan. The Energy Committee of the Niue Government with the assistance of the Pacific Island Energy Policy and Strategic Action Planning Project PIEPSAP November 2005. The National Energy Policy states briefly and precisely the Government's policies for the planning and management of the nation's energy sector over the next 10-15 years.
Green Growth Framework for Fiji – Restoring the balance in development that is sustainable for our future. This Framework is a “Living Document”. It is intended to support and complement the Peoples Charter for Change, Peace and Progress and the 2010-2014 Roadmap for Democracy and
Sustainable Socio-Economic Development and its successor national development documents. As
such this Green Growth Framework has the same vision as the Roadmap. This Green Growth Framework for Fiji is a tool to accelerate integrated and inclusive sustainable development.
