Training in software installation, data logging, data recovery and interpretation was conducted for the Fiji Islands Department of Energy (DOE) and the University of the South Pacific (USP) for monitoring solar hot water system efficiency. The workshop was held in SOPAC headquarters, Mead Road.
Final project report of the grid connected solar pv project in the Fiji Islands.
Training at OCEANOR in Norway on the use of satellite remote sensing data for study of wave climate. This training attachment was part of extended NORAD assistance to SOPAC's Regional Wave Energy Assessment Program. The attachment was carried out from 30 January -17 February 1995. Under the program OCEANOR, an oceanographic company fromNorway, was hired to study the wave climate for the South Pacific. In Fiji the tidal potential of an inlet in Vanua Levu was investigated.
Last edition of the Pacific Energy News for 2000. It is the second issue of a joint effort of the SOPAC Regional Energy Program & PREFACE - SPC.
This paper is the result of the discussions held during the Regional Energy Meeting (REM) 2000 and the SOPAC STAR Energy Working Group 2000 meeting which noted the need to provide technical information on "New Energy Technologies" in particular hydrogen fuel, ocean thermal energy conversion and space solar power generation.
In the present report data from the wave measurement programme, undertaken by Waverider buoys moored off the south coast of the two islands of Savai'i and Upolu, and directional wave measurements to the south east of Upolu are combined with satellite altimetric data and island wind measurements in building up a picture of the climatology of ocean waves off the shores of Western Samoa.

Report on the Energy from Ocean Waves Workshop held at the SOPAC Technical Secretariat in Suva,
Fiji from 12 - 16 July 1993. It was aimed at evaluating the
technical and economic issues in connection with wave power in the SOPAC region.
Report on wave and wind climate data held at SOPAC, Suva, Fiji from 6 December to 10 December 1993. The objective of the workshop was to summarize and review the SOPAC Wave Energy Program.
Report designed to assist the state of Yap's Energy Planning Unit (EPU) in sourcing, collecting and inputting energy data into the modified version of the database. The National Energy Demand/Supply Database was established to enable PICs to source, record and store energy data to develop their policies, also to be made available to donors and other regional organizations for their appropriate purposes.
