Fiji Energy Storage Power

What can Fiji do to improve electricity access?

Wind Energy: Exploiting coastal and offshore wind potential. Tidal Energy: Emerging technologies leveraging Fiji’s vast marine resources. Fiji aims to provide universal electricity access through the Fiji Rural Electrification Fund. This goal requires significant investment in: Decentralised solar and mini-grid systems.

How does Fiji generate electricity?

Today, as much as 60% of Fiji’s electricity generation is derived from hydropower while remote islands and some rural areas are largely dependent on energy production powered by imported fossil fuels. The growth of Fiji’s land transport sector has been largely concentrated around growing urban centres.

Why does Fiji rely on fossil fuels?

National energy production and consumption in Fiji remains highly dependent on imported fossil fuels in part due to the current demands of the transport sector and the ongoing reliance on thermal power plants to supplement renewable energy sources within Fiji’s electricity sector.

What is Fiji's energy policy?

The resulting purpose of this national Policy is to provide the overarching guidance required to increase efficiency, support inclusivity and gender equity in relation to energy and the energy sector, scale-up and diversify Fiji’s renewable energy portfolio, and support Fiji’s long-term energy resilience and security.
