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.
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?
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.
As one of the world''s smallest nations, Nauru faces colossal energy challenges—but its solutions could inspire islands globally. Let''s unpack how this microstate is becoming a macro case
