Pacific Energy and Gender (PEG) Network : Gender mainstreamed within the energy sector.
Increased gender awareness in the energy sector.

This study was undertaken as a SOPAC project, funded by NORAD and carried out under contract by OCEANOR of Trondheim, Noway. The wave data collected are available on a data base at the SOPAC Secretariat in Fiji. In this report the wave climate of the area of the South West Pacific covered by the project, which is bounded by 30"s to the equator and 160"E to 160°W, is described. This area covers the Vanuatu, Fiji and Tonga groups, the Cook Islands, Western Samoa, Tuvalu and the southern part of Western Kiribati.

Evaluation of geothermal energy resources : Continuation of the evaluation of geothermal energy by New Zealand Department of Scientific and Industrial Research.Report on geothermal and hydrothermal energy sources presented by representative of Solomon Islands.

Feasibility Study of Establishing OTEC : Marshall Islands are keen to develop alternative energy sources. Potential developers are kept informed on the region's potential through contributions to the International OTEC/DOWA Association Newsletter. Assistance was given to Marshall Islands to help them select a contractor to carry out a detailed feasibility study of establishing a OTEC power and fresh water plant on Majuro.

Techsec Local Wave Energy Monitoring Project : The Techsec with the assistance of the Norweigian government had commenced on local wave monitoring in the Cook Islands, Western Samoa and Tonga. Monitoring and data collection were carried out using the Wave Rider buoys deployed at selected sites within these countries.

Technical Assistance on the Energy Supply and Demand Database : To assist member countries to establish and maintain a compatible, accurate, reliable and up-to-date energy supply and demand database so as to enable effective management and planning of their national energy sectors. This is ongoing task that will provide assistance to countries to source and document energy data, however, progress has been minimum with PICs not putting priority o data collation and due to shortage of staff.

National energy demand/supply database for Palau

The major objectives of this paper is to provide information on the wind energy resource in the Pacific, wind turbines, design characteristics, site criteria, and socio-economic considerations and also to assist decision makers on the application of wind technology in the Pacific Region.

Diversification of Nauru's Cooking Fuels : To demonstrate in the domestic sector of Nauru that LPG is an equally convenient energy source for cooking as electricity, but a cheaper energy source.

Energy Efficiency Training & Public Awareness Campaign [REP-5] : This projects main objective was to improve the access of electricity and contribute to poverty alleviation thus improve the standard of living in Nauru. This project worked to improve the demand side efficiency and also where possible use of renewable energy sources.

Wave(passive) energy concept : This document was submitted in the 8th CCOP/SOPAC annual session. In 1978 the Mineral Resources Department recognized that Fiji has excellent locations for the application of this concept. In Fiji many potential sites have been recognized, and further work is intended to select the best sites for more detailed

In 1978 the Mineral Resources Department recognized that Fiji has excellent locations for the application of this concept. In Fiji many potential sites have been recognized, and further work is intended to select the best sites for more detailed
studies. On Fiji's Coral Coast alone eight potential sites have been identified in a preliminary desk study (Crown Agents Report 1979). If all were developed they could

The study of Energy Release and Seismicity in the South West Pacific (continued) : The objective of this study is to determine the dynamics and structure of the New Hebrides Island Ridge and its active marginal zone. Initial field work began in 1976 with a series of seismic experiments. The experiments, a series of short refraction profiles using small air-gun source was obtained in the central New Hebrides.

The study of Energy release and Seismicity in the Southwest Pacific : Initially proposed by the Ad hoc Committee in the 1975 CCOP/SOPAC - IDOE Workshop. The project seeks to undertake a series of interrelated studies which have as a common theme the release of seismic and heat energy. Work objectives were:
(1) Geothermal measurements, this would be an extension of existing and planned work on selected islands islands, as Efate Island (Vanuatu), Fiji & Solomon Islands.
(2) Earthquake and volcanic prediction
