Solomon Islands Electricity Authority (SIEA) is now officially known as Solomon Power as of December 2015. Attached in this record are its Annual Reports from 2010 - 2014. Technical information captured in the reports are:
Solomon Islands is a Least Developed Country (LDS) SIDS that will nonetheless commit to reduce emissions by:
Solomon Islands can with international assistance, contribute a further:
Samoa is targeting the energy sector with a focus on the electricity sub-sector. 26% of electricity was generated from renewable energy sources in 2014. Samoa commits to generating 100% of its electricity from renewable energy sources by 2025. This is conditional on Samoa attaining this target in 2017 and receiving external assistance to maintain the contribution of renewable sources at 100% through to 2025.
Samoa submitted their Intended nationally determined contributions (INDC) to the UNFCCC Secretariat on the 23rd of November 2015.
The main mitigation contribution for PNG would be in terms of an indicative replacement of fossil fuelled electricity generation with renewable energy sources. PNG will opt for a national target in the electricity sector in terms of becoming carbon free by a 2030 target date. Other mitigation options are energy efficiency, oil & gas sector, transport and forestry/land use.
PNG submitted their Intended nationally determined contributions (INDC) to the UNFCCC Secretariat on the 30th of September 2015.
Palau is committed to an absolute energy sector emissions reduction target with additional reductions coming from the waste and transport sectors. Indicative targets:
Palau submitted their Intended nationally determined contributions (INDC) to the UNFCCC Secretariat on the 28th of November 2015.
Niue will achieve a 38% share of renewable energy of total electricity generation by 2020. In 2014, the renewable energy share was 2%. This will in part be delivered by a 10% reduction in residential, commercial and government electricity demand by 2020. This contribution will be maintained through to 2025. Conditional upon additional international assistance, Niue could increase its contribution to an 80% share of renewable energy of total electricity generation, or to even higher levels by 2025.
The main mitigation contribution is to achieve the outcomes and targets under the National Energy Road Map (NERM), recommendations under the Second National Communications (SNC) and is conditional on receiving adequate funding and resources. To replace a substantial part of electricity generation with a large scale grid connected solar photovoltaic system (PV) with an estimated cost of 42 million US$. Concurrent to the above there needs to be put in place extensive demand-side energy management improvements with an estimated cost of 8 million US$ which will complete the PV installation.
Kiribati is a Least Developed Country (LDC) SIDS with limited resources that will nonetheless commit to reduce emissions by:
On the understanding that a global agreement addresses international assistance to access financial and technical resources, Kiribati can, with international assistance, contribute a further:
The FSM commits to unconditionally reduce by 2025 a 28% its GHGs emissions below emissions in year 2000. Similarly subject to the availability of additional financial, technical and capacity-building support from the international community, the FSM could do by 2025 an additional reduction up to 35% below emissions in the 2000 base year.
FSM submitted their Intended nationally determined contributions (INDC) to the UNFCCC Secretariat on the 24th of November 2015.
The target is for the renewable energy share in electricity generation to approach 100% by 2030 from around 60% in 2013. In addition an indicative reduction of 10% CO2 emissions for energy efficiency improvements economy-wide will be sought. These measures will reduce CO2 emissions in the energy sector by around 30% from BAU by 2030
Fiji submitted their Intended nationally determined contributions (INDC) to the UNFCCC Secretariat on the 5th of November 2015.
