The Technology, Policy, and Partnership Challenges in
In increasing the prevalence of solar generation assets, not only can the FSM lower energy costs for the island population and increase energy security, the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) can achieve progress toward its national and state climate action, development, and energy goals.
Australian Embassy Supports Feasibility Studies for Solar Mini
In response to Australia''s request, the FSM Government has agreed to undertake feasibility studies on the viability of constructing solar mini-grids in the islands of Yap and Pohnpei. This collaborative effort aims to provide sustainable and reliable power sources to these remote communities.

Micro-grids for Micronesia – Global Opportunity Explorer
The Federated States of Micronesia are investing in solar micro-grids and battery energy storage systems as well as capacity building to increase self-sufficiency and reduce emissions. On the island of Kosrae, 1.15 megawatt (MW) of grid-connected solar photovoltaic capacity is being installed as well as solar-diesel hybrid mini grid and rooftop
ENERGY PROFILE Micronesia (Federated States of)
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).
