What is French Polynesia's energy transition plan?
French Polynesia’s energy transition plan has three main objectives: Change the energy model, by gradually replacing the use of fossil fuels with renewable energies in all activities
Does French Polynesia rely on hydrocarbons?
French Polynesia, like most island territories, is highly dependent on hydrocarbon imports. In 2019, 93.8% of energy consumed in the archipelagos came from imports of various petroleum-based fuels. The renewable energy penetration rate in power generation stood at 28.78% in 2019. This figure has remained stable over the last five years.
What power supply does French Polynesia use?
The power supply in French Polynesia is 220 Volts (60 Hz). Hotels use either 110 or 220V, depending on the location. The outlet, which accepts Type E and C plugs primarily used in Europe, has two round prong holes and an outward grounding pin. Be sure to check compatibility before plugging in any electrical appliance.
Is biomass a source of electricity in French Polynesia?
Traditional biomass – the burning of charcoal, crop waste, and other organic matter – is not included. This can be an important source in lower-income settings. French Polynesia: How much of the country’s electricity comes from nuclear power? Nuclear power – alongside renewables – is a low-carbon source of electricity.
