Technical Publications

The Pacific Island countries and territories (PICTs) suffer disproportionately from the adverse consequences of climate change.

This report is a publication of the Pacific Power Association (PPA). The World Bank through the Sustainable Energy Industry Development Project (SEIPD) implemented by the PPA provided technical assistance and publication support.

This review of Renewable Energy Island (REIs) is an attempt to give an overview of initiatives within renewable energy on islands around the world.

The Pacific GeoEnergiser Newsletter is a quartely newsletter, which highlights human interest stories - those which demonstrate an impact on people/communities in Pacific Island countries and territories (PICTs), address the benefits and challenges of delivering services to communities, and highlight lessons learned.

The 14 developing member countries (DMCs) of the Pacific Department of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) cover a wide diversity.

This report captures the 2017 yearly, Pacific Fuel Price Monitor. Reviews are based on analysis of Means of Platts Singapore(MOPS), Benchmark Saudi Aramco LPG prices(sourced from 3MCO) and Pacific Fuel Prices on an annual average (source from Pacific Island countries)

The Lifuka Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Plant is a development activity which is aimed at supplying secure and environmentally sustainable energy to homes, schools, and other public facilities on the islands of Lifuka and Foa in the Ha;apai Group. The development activity will make possible an integraded power system in which the new technologies of photovoltaic generation and storage system are interfaced to the existing diesel control unit.

The electricity sector highlights how the sector is organized, recent performance trends, and a desk assessment of regulatory substance and governance. This assessment will be supplemented through field work. The areas where further information is needed from field interviews are highlighted in this case study.

The RALI Series is a collection of papers developed by the RALI project to share examples of low emission development in practice. The series features case studies, tools, and innovative new approaches in this space, highlighting user benefits and lessons learned.

The 'Eua Solar Photovoltaic Plant project provides a system with 200 kWp nominal power consisting of photovoltaic (PV) modules, mounting structures, foundations for the mounting structures, PV grid inverter, distribution boxes, grounding, fuses, connections and monitoring device according to the existing interfaces and conditions. The system will have a power control unit that controls the generated PV power to realise a maximum reduction in fuel consumption of existing diesel generation sets. The control unit will ensure that diesel power is generated in relation to actual demand.
