Acci�nDescripciónStatus
Influencia pol�tica/promoci�n de pol�ticasThrough Subbarao Consultancy Service's work with the government of Samoa, two components are being addressed; 1. development of a renewable energy and energy efficiency policy, and 2. development of a Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Action (NAMA) programme. The NAMA programme builds on the Samoa Low Carbon Development Strategy and targets activities to reduce GHG emissions. It will increase contributions of renewable energy to the Samoan energy mix. On-going
Actividades t�cnicas/cient�ficasResearch on biofuel for land transport, non-motorized transport, and project management through the Scientific Research Organisation of Samoa (SROS). Landcare Research New Zealand carried out an impact assessment to identify how farming jatropha at a large scale would impact the environment in Samoa. Two vehicles were successfully tested with a 50% biofuel blend for a year on a coconut-based biofuel before deciding to utilize jatropha curcas as a feedstock.Completed
