The Cook Islands Renewable Energy Chart 2016
HELLOThe Cook Islands Renewable Energy Chart 2016. This Plan updates the Te Atamoa o te Uira Natura (The Cook Islands Renewable Electricity Chart (CIREC), 2012) and is a guiding document for all stakeholders.1 While responsibility for the implementation of the CIREC rests with the Energy Commissioner, the Renewable Energy Development Division (REDD) will have the overarching role in developing strategic directions and approval for proposed renewable energy plans, ensuring funding and resources to complete the programme, and responsibility for monitoring and oversight. Te Aponga Uira (TAU) will perform a substantial role in the detailed planning and practical implementation. Further support will be required from Cook Islands other key agencies such as Cook Islands Investment Corporation (CIIC), Infrastructure Cook Islands, Aitutaki Power Supply, Ministry of Finance and Economic Management, Development Coordination Division, Island Councils, and others (including support of the public, which is central to this task). Each of these agencies has reviewed and committed to the approach set out in this update, including providing continuous input and improvement for the plan. Achieving coordination and alignment of programmes and policies will ensure the most efficient and effective implementation pathway. The renewable energy policy goal is focused on measuring progress on the accessibility, use and composition of energy and transport. Our country has been at the forefront of international efforts to harness renewable energy to meet its electricity needs, and have set electricity targets to be 100% renewable energy by 2020. Beyond this plan, there is still much work that needs to be done to ensure that all Cook Islanders have affordable, reliable and sustainable energy to power our future. Transport is a crucial issue in our remote and widely dispersed island nation. There is a need for frequent and reliable linkages between islands and internationally. This is central to the concept of nationhood and impacts the livelihoods of our people.
