Visit report to the PUB, South Tarawa Kiribati between 20 August - 10 September. The Pacific Infrastructure Advisory Centre (PIAC) received a request for technical assistance from the PUB on maintenance of the power generation plant and provide assistance for stregnthening PUB's benchmarking capability.This visit report details the activities, findings & next steps of the mission.
Renewable energy country profile for Kiribati in 2009. Prepared by IRENA. Profile provides an indication of energy national profile 2009, target of 10% electricity generation from renewables, policies in place to promote renewable energy since Rio Conference 1992.
Least cost analysis of electricity generation in Kiritimati Island. Study analyses the cost of wind, solar and electricity storage technologies that could replace the existing diesel generators on Kiritimati Island, with an emphasis on the unit cost of electricity. Study aims to identify the least cost analysis, over a 20 years period from the perspective of the Ministry and provide guidance for more detailed feasibility studies to be undertaken.
Perfomance benchmarking study for Pacific Island power utilities - 20 utilities. The last study of such kind was undertaken a decade ago. The current study adopts same basic indicators in the ealier effort, but additional indicators added to include grid-connected renewable systems, utility energy efficiencies, electricity suppply to grids from independent suppliers and others. Study coordinated by Pacific Power Association.

IRENAs multi-faceted work in the region is reflected in Pacific Lighthouses: Renewable Energy Roadmapping for Islands. The main report, intended to provide a framework for further action, is supported by 15 reports on specific islands and a document detailing hybrid
power systems for the Pacific. Together, these reports identify key concepts, challenges and best practices for the accelerated uptake of renewable energy in the
This publication contains energy statistics relating to the Gilbert Island group of Kiribati covering a time period of 2000-2009. It
