Photovoltaics in French Polynesia

Renewable energy in French Polynesia

Approximately 6% of primary energy in French Polynesia is generated from renewable energy sources. [1] Approximately 30% of electricity is generated renewably, primarily Hydroelectricity and solar power. [1] Renewable generation is concentrated on Tahiti, with other parts of French Polynesia almost entirely reliant on fossil fuels. [2]
