In total, around 4 MW of solar PV is installed with some grid-connected solar systems planned and many off-grid solar system planned by Fiji Department of Energy with funding from Fijian government and overseas donor agencies.
Solar photovoltaic (solar PV) systems are gaining popularity globally and likewise for Fiji. Globally, the price of solar PV has dramatically decreased over the last decade, resulting in an increase in new solar PV installation for electricity generation. Fiji’s solar PV generation on grid was nil before 2010.
Hence, considering the large land area in Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, land based solar installations can be done near locations with demand depending on the solar resource and land availability for installations. Photovoltaic power potential in Fiji. (Source: WBG 2016
EFL has planned for 5 MW solar power plant in Nadi, Fiji. This would require approximately 33,000 m 2 of land area and using Eq. 8.1, its generation potential is estimated to be around 9 GWh/annum. However, for diversifying Fiji’s electricity supply sources, further capacity addition is needed for solar PV supported by wind and biomass.
