Manager of PCREEE congratulates CBS Power Solutions (Fiji) Ltd

Friday, 27 Oct 2017

Suva, Fiji – The manager of the Pacific Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (PCREEE), Mr Solomone Fifita, has congratulated CBS Power Solutions (Fiji) Ltd for being Fiji’s Best Large Business Operating Internationally. The award was presented at the 2017 Prime Minister's International Business Awards held at the Grand Pacific Hotel in Suva on Saturday 21 October 2017.

“I am not at all surprised with the recognition of CBS Power Solutions (Fiji) Ltd’s work. You go to Tuvalu, Kiribati, Solomon Islands and even here in Tonga, you’ll see large renewable energy installations worth millions of dollars and they were designed, supplied and installed by CBS, Fifita said. It is the very reason why three weeks ago we brought emerging private sector companies from throughout the Pacific Islands to learn from the success of CBS.

I am pleased and honoured to have associated with CBS right from its inception. Whereas we used to sponsor the participation of CBS in regional capacity building events, it is now the reverse. CBS is now a sponsor and a strong and committed supporter of regional events on sustainable energy in the region.

At the annual conference of the Pacific Power Association, they will always be there with a booth to demonstrate their work in the region. They will contribute to the sponsorship of either the conference shirts or one of the receptions during the conference.

At the annual meetings of the Pacific Energy Advisory Group, they will always show up to share their experiences and to provide guidance to the regional agencies working in the sustainable energy space.

It all comes down to professionalism, honesty and partnerships and it is very encouraging to have a model in the region so that emerging businesses in the region can inspire to.

The PCREEE remains steadfast in its belief and mission that the private sector should be empowered to drive the renewable energy and energy efficiency developments in the region. We certainly need more CBS in our region”, said Fifita.   

CBS Power Solutions (Fiji) Ltd is a Fiji-based renewable energy services provider and general contractor. They identify, promote and implement solutions that are clean, reliable and economically viable.

PCREEE was established through a direction by the Pacific Islands Energy Ministers to support island member countries of the Pacific Community to improve access to modern, affordable and reliable energy services and energy security by promoting renewable energy and energy efficiency investments, markets and industries and to act as facilitator for innovative partnerships with the private sector.
