Decarbonizing power generation with 100 per cent renewable energy is a long-term solution for Tonga
The current trend suggests that Tonga will fall short of this target and will reach only 15.2 per cent in TFEC under the current policy scenario; therefore, taking a significant step up is necessary to bridge the gap. The major increase will need to be in the power sector. In terms of technology mix for electric power generation, the share of electricity generation will come from solar (65.2 per cent), wind (31.7 per cent) and diesel (3.1 per cent) in 2030.
