This document represents a regional consensus, affirmed at the 2004 Regional Energy Meeting in Madang, Papua New Guinea and is based on an earlier version of the regional energy policy affirmed in the Cook Islands in 2002 and with due consideration to the Rarotonga Declaration.
The review of the Pacific Islands Energy Policy has been coordinated by the Council of Regional Organisations in the Pacific (CROP) - Energy Working Group in close consultation with the Energy Officials from Pacific island countries and territories (PICTs).
This document represents a regional consensus, affirmed at the 2002 Regional Energy Meeting in Cook Islands via the Rarotonga Declaration.

This report was prepared by the Foundation for the Development Cooperation for the Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency. Scientifically, energy is defined as the ability for something to “work” now or in the future. This abstract definition has little meaning for non‐scientists, so for simplicity it is more common to think of energy in terms of the services it provides. Energy services are required to move heat and make things. Over time, energy production systems have become more efficient and economical, increasing the availability, quantity and quality of energy services.
This report was prepared by Gerhard Zieroth. This market survey limits itself to small and medium sized wind turbines from 10 to 300 kW and intends to identify suitable turbines for the application of wind energy projects in small islands with isolated electric networks. As such, the principal modes of operation for wind turbines in such systems – notably battery operated grid systems, standard grid parallel operation, high penetration and wind/diesel hybrid mode – are discussed, before the requirements for wind turbines in such systems are defined.

This report was prepared by K.R Chapman for FAO Sub-Regional Officefor the Pacific. This report presents findings from the conduct a rapid appraisal on the bioenergy-food security nexus at regional level, including selected Micronesia, Melanesia and Polynesia Pacific island countries. The aim the appraisal was to provide policy-makers a decision-making basis for the prioritization of in-depth country assessments and further analysis to be conducted in the second half of 2009 under the FAO Bioenergy and Food Security (BEFS) analytical framework.

This report was prepared by Castalia Advisory to the Asian Development Bank. The provision of water and energy infrastructure and services in the Pacific is poor when compared with other small island states. Many people, especially the rural poor, lack access to adequate water and energy services, and many water and energy utilities provide ineffective and inefficient service.

This report was prepared by Rupeni Mario. The Pacific island countries are heavily dependent on fossil fuels to meet their increasing energy needs for economic development. The high costs associated with fossil fuels are placing an increasing strain on the economies in the region. A significant factor in energy usage patterns in Pacific island countries has been attributed to the availability of energy sources as early as the fifteenth century where pollution control was not an issue. People have used what they have been able to get, be it coal, oil, natural gas, wood, etc.
This report was prepared by the European Commission. This evaluation aims to provide an overall independent assessment of the European Union’s cooperation and partnership relations with the Pacific region over 2006-2012. On the basis of this assessment, it provides recommendations to improve the EU’s current and future strategies, programmes and actions. The evaluation scope covers regional cooperation implemented in 15 Pacific Island States and 4 Overseas Countries and Territories of the EU Member States.
