Through its National Energy Road Map and in line with the goals of its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) under the Paris Agreement, Vanuatu aims for 100 percent rural electrification and a total transition to renewable energy by 2030.
The project aims to support the use of solar power and battery storage on the islands of Efate and Tanna, boosting Vanuatu’s energy independence and climate resilience. New Zealand’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs, Winston Peters, confirmed the country’s commitment during a press conference held in Port Vila on Wednesday.
With this project, 17,000 households throughout Vanuatu will be supported to access non grid, renewable electricity through solar. With low population densities and large distances between communities, a key challenge for the project has been providing access to electricity in a way that is cost effective and efficient.
