GIZ RE & Tourism Pilot Program Report

 Climate Change  Adaptation  Economics and Finance  Energy  Low carbon energy  Renewable energy

This report capture the key lessons learned from the implementation of a pilot study which tested subsidized and sustainable renewable energy and energy efficiency models within the private tourism sector. These lessons are intended to assist with the analysis and development of innovative & sustainable business models to increase access to renewable energy and energy efficiency for small-scale tourism operators in Vanuatu.

The Adapting to Climate Change and Sustainable Energy (ACSE) Solar, Biogas and Climate Early Warning System project is funded by EU-GIZ through the Ministry of Climate Change and implementing by the Department of Energy.  The Soar component of this focuses on installation of solar freezer and provide lighting in a fishing community. 
The main outcome of this project is increasing access to sustainable, and affordable energy in rural communities

Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Action (NAMA) Study Rural Electrification in Vanuatu

 Climate Change  Mitigation  Energy  Renewable energy

Vanuatu is an island nation located in the South Pacific Ocean with its territory spread over more than 80 islands and approximately 234,000 inhabitants. Its energy sector is characterized by a high dependency on fuel imports and with its population distributed over 65 islands, spread over more than 12,000 square kilometres, distribution of energy services is both technologically challenging and costly. This results in very low electrification rates and high fuel prices.

The Government of Vanuatu has decided to develop an oceans policy, which aligns with recommendations from the
Commonwealth Secretariat.
This report summarises the main findings1 of an analysis and assessment of 69 instruments of legislation and
subordinate policies and plans that are relevant to management and use of Vanuatu’s territorial waters and therefore
relevant to the development of the national oceans policy. The review of Vanuatu’s legislation, policies, strategies and

Net Zero by 2050 A Roadmap for the Global Energy Sector

 Energy  Emission reduction  Emissions  Low carbon energy  Renewable energy  Renewable energy targets

The energy sector is the source of around three‐quarters of greenhouse gas emissions  today and holds the key to averting the worst effects of climate change, perhaps the  greatest challenge humankind has faced. Reducing global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to  net zero by 2050 is consistent with efforts to limit the long‐term increase in average global  temperatures to 1.5 °C. This calls for nothing less than a complete transformation of how we  produce, transport and consume energy.

Vanuatu is unique among the Paris Agreement parties that have produced Low Emissions Development Strategies (LEDS) and Long-Term Strategies (LTS). Vanuatu is already net negative for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Vanuatu’s large forest area removes more than 10 times the GHG emissions generated from human activity.

Vanuatu Marine Ecosystem Service Valuation SUMMARY & Final report

This study,conducted in 2015, aimed to determine the economic value of seven marine and coastal ecosystem services in Vanuatu. The study forms part of the broader MACBIO project (Marine and Coastal Biodiversity Management in Pacific Island Countries and Atolls) that aims to strengthen the management of marine and coastal biodiversity in Pacific island countries.

The “Committing to Sustainable Waste Actions in the Pacific” referred to hereafter as SWAP project aims to improve sanitation, environmental, social, and economic conditions in Pacific Island countries and territories through proper waste management.

To achieve this, the overall work focuses on three streams of wastes: used oil, marine debris, disaster wastes and an overarching issue on sustainable financing mechanisms.

Six countries and territories benefit from this overall project which include Fiji, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Vanuatu, and Wallis and Futuna.
