Barrier Removal for Achieving the National Energy Road Map Targets for Vanuatu
The project aims to enable Vanuatu to achieve its energy access, sustainable energy, and green growth targets, as represented in the National Energy Road Map 2020 and 2030.
As of 2017, about 71% of the nation’s over 270,000 people lacked access to grid electricity. Over 80% of the population cooks over open earth fire. Of the off-grid population, over half have no other access to power aside from a solar lantern. While donor efforts to improve energy access in rural areas through renewable energy have been substantial and some more limited efforts to promote energy efficient cook stoves have been initiated, results have far underperformed targets.
