Does Niue use solar energy?
Over the last 5 months the total integrated system has resulted in 28.6% of Niue’s electricity coming from solar renewable sources, saving over 130,000 litres of diesel. Find out more about Vector Powersmart
How did the Niue solar project work?
Working on the existing solar plants to establish communication with the Niue Central Power Station. Installing 600kW of solar to increase the islands overall solar capacity to 1.1MW of solar generation. The solar array was installed well inland on high ground to avoid any potential damage from cyclones in the future.
How can vector PowerSmart help Niue?
Vector PowerSmart’s newly implemented energy technology will go a long way to helping Niue achieve this goal by increasing the island’s use of renewable energy. This project was implemented in partnership with the Government of Niue and MFAT.
What will New Zealand do with the Niue ocean wide trust?
The project will bring Niue's renewable generation to 80 percent. New Zealand will also commit $2 million to the Niue Ocean Wide Trust, which aims to develop a blue economy and ensure long-term ocean conservation and climate resilience.
