The choices for energy supply in Kiribati are presently limited to imported petroleum products, biomass and to a very insignificant extent, solar energy and wind power. The utilisation of PV technologies in Kiribati at present is largely for lighting.
The potential for solar power in Kiribati is immense, given the country''s location near the equator and its abundant sunshine. In recent years, the government of Kiribati has recognized the need to transition to renewable
Kiribati''s energy story highlights both the successes and pitfalls of off-grid solar projects in the South Pacific, a region that includes some of the world''s poorest countries. On one hand, energy experts say such initiatives have brought power to thousands of remote villages despite enormous geographic and logistical obstacles.

Kiribati Green Energy Solution, a State-Owned Enterprise was established on 14 November 1984 under the Company Ordinance Cap 10A. It is a leading Government implementing agency in the energy sector deal with any renewable energy initiatives in Kiribati.
The potential for solar power in Kiribati is immense, given the country''s location near the equator and its abundant sunshine. In recent years, the government of Kiribati has recognized the need to transition to renewable energy sources and has set ambitious targets to increase the share of renewables in its energy mix.

The resulting Kiribati Integrated Energy Roadmap (KIER) highlights key challenges and presents solutions to make Kiribati''s entire energy sector cleaner and more cost effective. As a small, remote island state, Kiribati is highly dependent on imported energy supply.
Solar Energy for the outer island project, funded by European Union. The project implemented by KGES having the following components. Market Survey ; User Training Programmes; Design of solar PV systems; Distribution and Installation of 1700
Kiribati Green Energy Solution, a State-Owned Enterprise was established on 14 November 1984 under the Company Ordinance Cap 10A. It is a leading Government implementing agency in the energy sector deal with any renewable energy initiatives in Kiribati.
In 2020, the reformation and renaming of the Company (commonly known then as Kiribati Solar Energy Company) was conducted with the core objective is to broaden its scope in providing services with renewable energy including solar energy, wave energy, wind energy and other RE technologies that is applicable in Kiribati.
They also have a second solar panel from the energy company, which they purchased for around $170, and several hand-held solar lights (donated to 10,000 Kiribati households last year by the Taiwanese government). Roniti Piripi in the village of Buariki, Kiribati.
But the 25-year solar rollout in Kiribati hasn’t always gone smoothly, according to officials and energy consultants.
But in 1991, an agent from a government company came to his village, Buariki, and offered to lease him a solar home system for a one-time payment of US$52 and regular monthly payments of $7. Piripi said he leapt at the opportunity and hasn’t looked back.
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.
