The country needs to transition to cleaner forms of energy to
The Pacific Island countries (PICs) comprise small islands with small populations and large distances between them (see Fig. 1).Their energy use, supply and resources are similar to those of other small island developing states [1], especially those which are likewise in the tropics.Per capita use of commercial energy is much lower than that in more
Pacific small island developing states have committed to achieving net zero by 2050 and 100% renewable energy targets. For example, Fiji, Vanuatu and the Solomon Islands have a 100% renewable energy transition target by 2030. Overall, renewable energy capacity in the Pacific has increased by 30% between 2014 and 2022.
PICTs have ambitious renewable energy targets to reduce their dependence on imported fossil fuels (including diesel for electricity generation), improve energy security
Renewable energy accounts for only 17 per cent of the total energy supply. Fuel imports cost the region US$6 billion annually, or around 5 to 15 per cent of GDP for each economy. there are solutions to alleviate this
Q: How important is renewable energy to the Pacific? A: Renewable energy is critically important to the Pacific islands. The Pacific islands for us, we have 15 developing member countries, they have really good renewable energy resources. They''re well endowed with good wind power, good solar power, and good hydro power.
Some 6,000 companies, including many of the world''s largest, have set science-based greenhouse emission reduction targets or pledged to do so. 1 The switch to renewable energy has emerged as a key lever, but despite the growing interest, companies still face formidable roadblocks when it comes to securing renewable energy.
