Samoa is rehabilitating old hydropower plants and building new ones to achieve its target of going 100% renewable and wean off its dependence on imported fossil fuels for power generation. When completed, the island nation targets to save about 36 million liters of diesel per year.

ADB, together with development partners, is supporting the Samoan government’s efforts through $32.59 of co-financed grants under the Renewable Energy Development and Power Sector Rehabilitation Project.
