The aim of this study is to conduct an economic and financial evaluation of a number of
technologically-proven renewable energy projects, which have been implemented in Pacific Island
Countries, in order to assess the potential for renewable energy to play a larger role in rural
electrification strategies in the region. These include projects that utilise technologies such as
solar photovoltaic (PV) home systems, wind-hybrid systems, coconut biofuel-powered generators
and micro-hydroelectric systems. Using case studies from various Pacific Islands, the least-cost

Joint Ocean/Wave Energy Project : To develop a new project to monitor the progress with the development of ocean-based energy technologies, to extend the earlier resource assessment work carried out by SOPAC and to look at the possibility of building a ocean-based energy demonstration project in the region.
