Climate Change

Project Summary

Location: States of Pohnpei, Kosrae, Chuuk and Yap
Objective: Enhancing investments in small-scale renewable energy in FSM through providing legislation to guide the connection of renewable energy systems to the main power grid and access to loans.
Implementing Agency: Pacific Community (SPC)
Budget: € 325,000
Duration: 2017—2018

The Atlas of Sustainable Development Goals 2018 is a visual guide to the trends, challenges and measurement issues related to each of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. The Atlas features maps and data visualizations, primarily drawn from World Development Indicators (WDI) - the World Bank’s compilation of internationally comparable statistics about global development and the quality of people’s lives.

Strategy 2030 sets the course for ADB’s efforts to respond effectively to the Asia and Pacific region’s changing needs.

Asia and the Pacific has made great strides in poverty reduction and economic growth in the past 50 years. ADB has been a key partner in the significant transformation of the region and is committed to continue serving the region in the next phase of its development.

Under Strategy 2030, ADB will expand its vision to achieve a prosperous, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable Asia and the Pacific, while sustaining its efforts to eradicate extreme poverty.

This implementation Plan written by the Government of Tokelau provides an overview of how implementation of LivC will occur.

LivC has three inter-related strategic Climate Resilient Investment Pathways (CRIPs):

1. Mitigation: Decarbonisation Development;

2. Adaptation: Strengthened Integrated Risk Reduction and Adaptation to enhance climate change and disaster resilience and

3. Human Development: Capacity Building, Education, Training, Public Awareness & Outreach,

The Pacific GeoEnergiser Newsletter is a quartely newsletter, which highlights human interest stories - those which demonstrate an impact on people/communities in Pacific Island countries and territories (PICTs), address the benefits and challenges of delivering services to communities, and highlight lessons learned.

The electricity sector highlights how the sector is organized, recent performance trends, and a desk assessment of regulatory substance and governance. This assessment will be supplemented through field work. The areas where further information is needed from field interviews are highlighted in this case study.

This report is an effort to capture what has been carried out under the ‘Implementation Plan of the Framework for Action on Energy Security in the Pacific 2011–2015’. It is an attempt to improve the accountability and transparency of the work of the implementation partners, in highlighting what has been carried out, what were their outputs and what impacts they made.

In March of 2010, the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) Office of Insular Affairs (OIA) sponsored a regional energy meeting in Golden, Colorado, that included the CNMI, American Samoa, and Guam. CNMI delegates from the Governor’s Office, the Commonwealth Utilities Corporation (CUC) and the Northern Marianas College (NMC) met with representatives from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and senior principals from DOE’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to discuss ways to improve energy efficiency and increase the deployment of renewable energy technologies in the Pacific.

The second meeting of the Steering Committee for the Pacific Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (PCREEE) Steering Committee (SC) was held on 12th December 2017 together with the 8th Meeting of the Pacific Energy Advisory Group and the Workshop on Accelerating Renewable Energy Deployment in Small Island Developing States from the 11th – 15th December 2017 at the Novotel, Suva, Fiji.
