6 FAQs about [Energy storage and transport Fiji]
Why does Fiji rely on fossil fuels?
National energy production and consumption in Fiji remains highly dependent on imported fossil fuels in part due to the current demands of the transport sector and the ongoing reliance on thermal power plants to supplement renewable energy sources within Fiji’s electricity sector.
How does Fiji generate electricity?
Today, as much as 60% of Fiji’s electricity generation is derived from hydropower while remote islands and some rural areas are largely dependent on energy production powered by imported fossil fuels. The growth of Fiji’s land transport sector has been largely concentrated around growing urban centres.
Does Fiji have a nuclear power station?
Fiji neither has any fossil fuel energy resources nor any nuclear power stations. It imports all its fuel requirements for transportation and electricity. Renewable energy resources are mainly used for electric power generation. Due to geographical location of Fiji, it has good renewable energy resources such as solar, wind, biomass and hydro.
What is the energy situation in Fiji?
It is a small island developing state (SIDS) that is heavily dependent on imported fossil fuel for its energy needs. The paper attempts to determine the past and current energy situation in Fiji, challenges faced and strategizes to overcome these challenges. In 2014, Fiji generated 859 GWh of grid electricity from 259.8 MW of power plants.
What is the future of Fiji's energy sector?
The future of Fiji’s energy sector will continue to be shaped by these factors. Today, as much as 60% of Fiji’s electricity generation is derived from hydropower while remote islands and some rural areas are largely dependent on energy production powered by imported fossil fuels.
What are the responsibilities of energy institutions in Fiji?
The energy institutions in Fiji (Table 8), are responsible for energy planning, energy policy making, energy project financing, determination of energy prices (electricity tariff and fuel prices) and energy research. These institutions need to be well financed and adequately staffed to carry out its responsibilities effectively.
