Samoa Observer | Renewable energy target on track

Most of the electricity in Samoa, particularly for the main grid, is generated from diesel, hydro-power and solar power generation stations and a very small amount of electricity is produced from wind energy and biomass resources. In 2020, Samoa launched the $11.3 million talā Afolau Biomass Gasification Power plant opposite the Faleolo

Samoa installs battery energy storage, in a Pacific first.

Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi says the system will make Samoa''s power supply stable and cost-effective. He says its more environmentally-friendly than diesel generators. The system, which has been installed by the American company Solar City-Tesla, will kick in when power consumption is high to relieve pressure on the network.
