Additionally, our islands are tiny, and renewable energy – solar panels, wind turbines, and batteries – take up large amounts of space. This means we need to find innovative ways to use proven technology, such as exploring the possibility of floating solar panels in our lagoons. The Marshall Islands was one of the first countries

Provide at least 200 household applicants with free energy audits, and then provide loans for them to install energy efficient lighting and electric appliances, as well as rooftop solar panels to generate renewable electricity.
A roadmap for RMI power decarbonization The Marshall Islands aims to reduce electricity emissions by over half in seven years, with further reductions leading to net zero emissions by 2050 — or sooner.

The future of the Marshall Islands electricity system depends on upgrading the electricity network, getting better at energy efficiency, and replacing diesel generation with renewable energy in the form of wind and solar. Most of all it depends on our people. Take a look at where we are headed.
As a result, the company has moved cautiously towards adopting grid-connected solar systems that do not include energy storage. So far it has only allowed five grid-connected solar installations without storage. Two 53 kWp and 57 kWp systems are at the College of the Marshall Islands. The others are a
Two 53 kWp and 57 kWp systems are at the College of the Marshall Islands. The others are a 10 kWp system at the fisheries base, a 30 kWp system at the University of the South Pacific campus and a 209 kWp system at Majuro hospital. MEC intends to move cautiously before allowing a major expansion of grid-connected solar generation.
The Republic of the Marshall Islands is calling for ambitious action by all countries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. We are leading the way by committing to net zero emissions by 2050, with significant milestones along the way. The Marshall Islands Electricity Roadmap presents costed, technically sound pathways to help achieve our NDC.
MEC, KAJUR, the College of the Marshall Islands and the University of the South Pacific, all carry out capacity building in support of energy activities. Most of the primary energy supply (90%) comes from petroleum, with biomass used for cooking accounting for nearly all the rest.
The preferable scenario in the RMI would be to create a standardised modular design prequalified for financing by the Marshall Islands Development Bank. Any requirement for a detailed technical review of a proposed installation is thereby eliminated. That way, home owners or solar PV installers will know in advance exactly what will be installed.
