Renewable energy in Tuvalu

OverviewSolar energyTuvalu''s carbon footprintTuvalu Energy Sector Development Project (ESDP)Commitment under the Majuro Declaration 2013Commitment under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) 1994Wind energyFilmographyIn 2007, Tuvalu was getting 2% of its energy from solar, through 400 small systems managed by the Tuvalu Solar Electric Co-operative Society. These were installed beginning in 1984 and, in the late 1990s, 34% of families in the outer islands had a PV system (which generally powered 1-3 lights and perhaps a few hours a day of radio use). Each of the eight islands had a medical center with a PV-powered vaccine refri
