6 FAQs about Nauru adds new power base station

Does Nauru have an energy road map?

Currently Nauru is working on an Energy Road Map, including action plans for the development of renewable energy and energy efficiency sufficient to significantly lower imports of diesel fuel for electricity generation.

How is Nauru moving in the energy sector?

In the energy sector, Nauru is moving along in a process of shifting from what amounted to a system of free electricity to tariffs that recover the real cost of power.

How does Nauru generate electricity?

Nauru currently relies heavily on imported diesel for power generation, which poses challenges due to fuel price fluctuations and supply interruptions. About 3% of its electricity comes from solar photovoltaic installations. What key renewable energy projects are underway in Nauru?

Will Nauru install a solar power plant?

Nauru has embarked on an ambitious project to install a grid-connected solar power plant with a capacity of 6 megawatts (MW) of alternating current. This initiative is part of the Solar Power Development Project, which aims to diversify the energy mix and reduce reliance on diesel.

Why is Nauru so vulnerable to solar energy?

Solar energy is the only proven renewable energy resource which could be utilised in short to medium term to reduce dependency on fuel imports for electricity generation. The country's vulnerability is also increased by its isolation from other Pacific Islands. In 2012, SPC released an energy profile of Nauru based on 36 energy security indicators.

Does Nauru need government subsidies?

The high cost of power generation in Nauru, often exceeding $0.40 per kilowatt-hour, has historically required government subsidies to keep electricity affordable for residents. However, recent efforts, including support from the Asian Development Bank (ADB), have aimed to improve the financial sustainability of the energy sector.
