13 Kiribati committed to use renewable energy to reduce fossil fuel consumption by 2025 (23% reduction on South Tarawa, 40% on Kiritimati, and 40% on the outer islands). It has also set the target of using energy efficiency to further reduce diesel consumption by 2025 (22% on South Tarawa, 20% on Kiritimati, and 20% on the outer islands).
As a small, remote island state, Kiribati is highly dependent on imported energy supply. Electricity is one of the government’s largest expenditures. Yet the current fossil fuel-based power system is inadequate to meet future demand.
Kiribati’s outer islands are served largely with solar home systems, and Kiritimati island, the second largest load center (1.65 GWh in 2016), has a separate power system not managed by the PUB. 6. Constrained renewable energy development and lack of private sector participation.
Primary energy demand. Kiribati’s energy consumption, which is dominated by imported fossil fuels (52%) and coconut oil (42%), has been steadily increasing over the last few years. The residential sector is the largest consumer of energy, followed by land transport.
With international assistance, Kiribati can reduce its emissions by 61.8% by 2030.11 Recent strategy documents, including the Kiribati 20-Year Vision 2016–2036 (KV20), reaffirm these commitments and call for concrete approaches to achieving them.12 10. Energy road map and investment plans.
The PUB serves more than 57,000 people in South Tarawa, which has the highest demand at 24.7 gigawatt-hours (GWh) in 2019. Kiribati’s outer islands are served largely with solar home systems, and Kiritimati island, the second largest load center (1.65 GWh in 2016), has a separate power system not managed by the PUB. 6.
