The BHP, situated in north west Malekula, forms part of the broader Vanuatu Energy Access Project (VEAP): a key initiative in the Government of Vanuatu''s commitment to clean energy. "Hydropower delivers a long-term solution to the energy issues facing many Pacific Island communities," continued Mr Bird.
Access to reliable and sustainable electricity supply is a game-changer for remote communities, and the Government of Vanuatu is planning to embark on a comprehensive programme which

Access to reliable and sustainable electricity supply is a game-changer for remote communities, and the Government of Vanuatu is planning to embark on a comprehensive programme which will electrify most inhabited islands in Vanuatu through renewable energy.
This project is aligned to the Government of Vanuatu''s National Energy Road Map for increasing the energy access for rural communities in Vanuatu. The installed solar PV system is a stand-alone 230/400 VAC 50Hz solar micro-grid

Vanuatu''s National Energy Road Map (NERM) was considered and endorsed by the Council of Ministers in 2013. The NERM is the policy framework for developing the energy sector in Vanuatu. The NERM identified five priorities for the energy sector: access, petroleum supply, affordability, energy security, and climate change.
Launched in September in the communities of Wintua and Lorlow, the micro-grid is Vanuatu’s first-ever community-run power system: members of the communities own and manage it. This keeps energy costs low as there are no external operation costs or profit margin are usually incorporated into an electricity fee and passed onto consumers.
On the remote island of Malekula, a new solar micro-grid is changing the lives of over 2,800 people -- boosting local development while contributing to Vanuatu’s sector-specific target of transitioning to close to 100 percent renewable energy in the electricity sector by 2030.
This growth is encouraging as it provides confidence that Vanuatu is developing alternatives to diesel for generating electricity. This will reduce reliance on a single fuel (and the related risks to affordability) as well as achieve renewable energy targets for sustainability purposes.
The ability to assess the diversity of Vanuatu’s primary energy supply is limited because much of the supply comes from biomass, where there is a lack of recent and accurate data. Given this, the assessment below focuses on the mix of sources used for electricity generation.
Due to Vanuatu’s reliance on imported fossil fuels, international fuel prices largely determine the affordability of electricity and transport energy in Vanuatu. For instance, the decrease in the price of diesel fuel at the end of 2014 led to an 11 percent drop in the electricity price (Vt53.77 in November 2014 to Vt47.82 in March 2015).
There are two main objectives for accessible energy in Vanuatu. These objectives also relate to energy affordability (for example, encouraging a switch from kerosene to pico solar systems is likely, over time, to provide households with cheaper lighting). Objective 2 also relates to green growth objectives.
