The Energy Efficiency Guidelines for Street Lighting in the Pacific were designed in accordance with the specific needs and requirements of the PDMCs, which have limited resources due to their geographical placement. The utilities, public and private sectors have limited experience in developing and implementing energy efficiency projects capable of making considerable impact in the region.
This document addresses one of the activities under Output 2 of the PEEP2 Project – Development of Energy Efficiency Policies and Procedures, which aims to establish energy efficiency best practices for the hospitality sector, including a recommendation to adopt a green hotels rating scheme in the PDMCs. To this end, the PEEP2 team has undertaken a study of green hotels ratings schemes, in order to recommend one such rating scheme for adoption.
The Regional Status Report on Efficient Lighting in the Pacific Island Countries and Territories was prepared by George Wilkenfeld and Associates, Energy Policy and Planning consultants, Australia for the Pacific Efficient Lighting Strategy (PELS) Project managed by the Secretariat of the Pacific Community (SPC).The report covers most of the SPC PICTs and benefitted from surveys and data collected by the Promoting Energy Efficiency in the Pacific – Phase 2 (PEEP 2) Project and the Pacific Appliance Labelling and Standards (PALS) Program.
This report is a publication of the Pacific Power Association (PPA). The report is based upon the 2012 fiscal reporting year relevant to each utility. Presents the results of the 3rd successive annual assessment of Pacific electricity utility performance since the initiative resumed in 2011. Report prepared by PPA with technical support from the Pacific Region Infrastructure Facility (PRIF).
Electricity tariff table of Pacific Utilities, obtained through the Pacific Power Association (PPA) benchmarking exercise. Data table is extracted from the 2012 PPA Report, published in 2015. PPA Reports were downloaded from the PPA Website and is available within this portal. This dataset captures both electricity tariffs in the local currency & USD. Tariff review was carried out by PPA and some utilities were not represented in this table due to difficulty in understanding or missing information.
The main mitigation contribution for PNG would be in terms of an indicative replacement of fossil fuelled electricity generation with renewable energy sources. PNG will opt for a national target in the electricity sector in terms of becoming carbon free by a 2030 target date. Other mitigation options are energy efficiency, oil & gas sector, transport and forestry/land use.
PNG submitted their Intended nationally determined contributions (INDC) to the UNFCCC Secretariat on the 30th of September 2015.
