Proceedings of the eighth session, Suva, Fiji, 24 September - 1 October 1979.

Wave(passive) energy concept : This document was submitted in the 8th CCOP/SOPAC annual session. In 1978 the Mineral Resources Department recognized that Fiji has excellent locations for the application of this concept. In Fiji many potential sites have been recognized, and further work is intended to select the best sites for more detailed
studies. On Fiji's Coral Coast alone eight potential sites have been identified in a preliminary desk study (Crown Agents Report 1979). If all were developed they could supply 130 megawatts, well in excess of Fiji's present total electrical power capacity.
