Hydropower report for the Solomon Islands. Report published in 2013 by UNIDO and International Center on Small Hydro Power.
Funding support from the PECF Project for Solomon Islands is to expand rural electrification to 2,000 new unelectrified households in eight provinces around Solomon Islands through the provision of Solar Home Systems that will involve the installation of three lights in each house and with the capacity to provide power for small electric items such as charging of mobile phones.
This report was preapred by Gerhard Zieroth for ADB. In the Solomon Islands electricity is supplied to less than 20% of the population. Almost all generation is based on imported diesel fuel. This report assesses the potential for developing alternative energy sources for electricity generation, in particular small scale hydropower for the outstations of the Solomon Islands Electricity Authority.

This report was prepared by the Government of Solomon Islands. Village-level mini-grids provide a means of providing electrical energy of a quality and volume that supports income generation and opportunities in the cash-economy, that are not possible with simple household PV solar systems. There is some success in Solomon Islands over the last 20 years with local communities and Rural Electrification Service Companies (RESCOs) in developing mini-grids, most of which are based on micro-hydro technology, but with some using coconut oil biofuel and solar PV.
This report was prepared by ESMAP Strategy and Programs Division. The objective of this assessment are to eveluate the energy position of the Solomon Islands, especially its energy resources and development options, and to suggest priority policies and actions that might be taken in the sector by the Government and external donors. The present report follows an energy assessment completed in 1983 (Report No. 4404-SOL).
This report was prepared by the Government of Solomon Islands. The national energy policy framework sets out the government's policies for the planning and mangement of the energy sector over the next 10 years. Energy is an intergral part of our daily life. It is the foundation of our economy and it provides comfort and conveniences. Yet energy and its availability are often taken for granted.

The Inception report was prepared by the Asian Development Bank (ADB). Electricity supply in the Solomon Islands is provided to less than 20 % of the population. Almost all generation is based on imported diesel fuel. Apart from this high dependence on external supply, the country also faces challenges in the development of the energy sector, including maintaining reliability, ensuring commercial viability of the power utility SIEA and increasing access to modern energy supply.
