Pacific Islands Electric Mobility Working Group Workshop 15th June – 16 June 2023 Content Energy Sector Overview Energy Division role Energy Polices & Framework Energy Act Road Transportation Challenges and Barriers Plans for 2023-2030 Energy Sector Overview Energy Policies & Frameworks Important Energy Targets: 1. SDG 7 by 2030 2. NDC by 2025 3. Fossil fuel use reduction by 2025 South Tarawa 45% (23% RE, 22% EE) Kiritimati 60% (40% RE, 20% EE) Outer Islands > 60% RE for public infrastructures 100% RE for public and private institutions Road Transportation - EV is reflected under the Kiribati Integrated Energy Roadmap 2017. Introduce electric vehicle pilot projects to assess their feasibility for Kiribati and, if viable, support their adoption. Government of Kiribati should spearhead the adoption of more energy efficient vehicles, such as hybrid cars and electric vehicles that use solar PV for charging. Kiribati Energy Act 2022 Energy Act 2022 Recently endorsed by Parliament in Dec 2022. and has been assented by HE President beginning of this year. Regulation Under Energy ACT Petroleum Minimum Energy Performance Standard Labelling Electricity Part of electricity is regulating the importation, of energy efficient vehicles. Road Transportation Challenges & Barriers Electricity price is high Not enough power generated by Utility Land issue with provision of Renewable Energy Powering Station Lack of understanding to the public on Electrical Vehicles Requires Technical Capacity for maintaining the Electric Vehicles Propose Plan for 2023 – 2030 on EV Promoting EV to the public (awareness). Improve the electricity infrastructure (utility) Government initiatives for importation of Electrical Vehicles Exemption for customs charges on any imported EV Provision of free charging station within Government facilities Pilot project on EV can be implemented through Government vehicles (transports) Encourage Private sectors to import EV (cars, bikes, scooters, Motorbikes) Encourage Government companies such as Kiribati Green Energy Solution (KGES) to promote and import EV Thank You
