Introduction

The challenges faced by Fiji’s energy sector are largely due to its geographical environment and small market size. Close to 60 percent of Fiji’s electricity generation is derived from hydropower, while remote areas and outer islands are dependent on imported fossil fuels and biomass. Fiji’s 20-year National Development. Incentives are offered to encourage investments in energy generation through renewable energy sources and to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Fiji has untapped renewable energy resources such as hydro, wind, biomass.

Fiji and dispersed islands within Fiji group leads to many challenges to have accessible, affordable and sustainable energy supply. These challenges are comprehensively discussed in

ENERGY PROFILE Fiji

Onshore wind: Potential wind power density (W/m2) is shown in the seven classes used by NREL, measured at a height of 100m. The bar chart shows the distribution of the country''s land area in each of these classes compared to the global distribution of wind resources. Areas in the third class or above are considered to be a good wind resource.

Solar Energy for Power Generation in Fiji: History, Barriers and

There are a number of island resorts in Fiji, which have over the past decade installed solar PV systems with battery storage for supplying electricity with diesel generators as back-up. The largest system to date is Six Senses Fiji Resort on Malolo Islands in the Mamanuca Group that has a 1 MW solar PV system with 4 MWh of Lithium ion battery

Backup power supply

Hundred per cent of healthcare facilities have Energy Fiji Ltd (EFL) power supply, but not all have solar power supply and generators as backup power supply. This was one of the important findings in the climate hazards and vulnerabilities assessment of healthcare facilities, which was highlighted by World Health Organization consultant Railala

Fiji National Energy Policy: 2023-2030

In light of Fiji''s commitments to address both the causes and impacts of climate change and transition rapidly, to a sustainable economy producing net-zero emissions annually by 2050, this National Energy Policy provides the intent, direction, and priority objectives to support national energy security, achieve universal and equitable access

Moving Fiji to renewable energy

The emphasis is on moving Fiji''s power supply from fossil fuels to renewable energy. This was the comment made by the Minister for Infrastructure Jone Usamate during a debate on the Review of the Fiji Electricity Authority (FEA) 2017 and Energy Fiji Ltd (EFL) 2018 Consolidated Report.

Fiji

Fiji''s 20-year National Development Plan calls for all power to be generated from renewable sources by 2030. In line with this plan, assessments have shown that a combination of solar, wind, geothermal, marine, biomass, and biofuel could be used to meet Fiji''s energy needs.

Fiji Energy Situation

The National Energy Policy of the country states that Fiji could achieve 100% renewable electricity by 2030, however, this would require an increase in action, such as a strict implementation of the National Energy Policy, improved coordination between agencies as well as investing in new energy technologies such as renewable-powered maritime
