Assessing solar resource and photovoltaic production in Tahiti

from May to October. In 2012, 69 % of French Polynesia''s inhabitants lived in Tahiti. Tahiti''s consumption represented 80 % of the total electricity consumption over French Polynesia [1].

Safaricom quadruples solar-powered sites as energy costs soar

Safaricom quadruples solar-powered sites as energy costs soar. From 310 base transmission stations powered by solar in 2022, the number has grown to 1,432 in 2023 and will continue to grow as the company looks to use less energy, cut costs, and meet its sustainability goals.

ENERGY PROFILE French Polynesia

Solar PV: Solar resource potential has been divided into seven classes, each representing a range of annual PV output per unit of capacity (kWh/kWp/yr). The bar chart shows the proportion of a country''s land area in each of these classes and the global distribution of land area across the classes (for comparison).

Assessing solar resource and photovoltaic production in Tahiti

This study focuses on the solar resource available at Faaa, Tahiti (17.5°S, 149.5°W) thanks to 10 year-long solar irradiance time series. Faaa''s global horizontal irradiance ranges from 14 MJ.m -2 .day -1 (June) to 21 MJ.m -2 .day -1 (November) in agreement with the sun''s annual path, while clearness index ranges from 0.5 (January) to 0.

Renewable energy in French Polynesia

Approximately 6% of primary energy in French Polynesia is generated from renewable energy sources. [1] Approximately 30% of electricity is generated renewably, primarily Hydroelectricity and solar power. [1] Renewable generation is concentrated on Tahiti, with other parts of French Polynesia almost entirely reliant on fossil fuels. [2]

Supporting French Polynesia''s energy transition

AFD and the Polynesian authorities have jointly defined a support program to assist French Polynesia with its energy transition. By 2030, the renewable energy penetration rate in power generation will reach about 75%.
