Overview
Solomon Islands's energy use per capita stood at 128 in 2007, a rise of +8 from 2006. Solomon Islands ranked 8th globally.
The Solomon Islands exhibited a fluctuating trend in energy use per capita from 1990 to 2007, with a peak of 160.85 units in 1990 and a trough of 120.02 units in 2006. Following a decline, the country's energy use per capita stabilized, reaching 127.96 units in 2007, ranking eighth globally. Compared to its peer countries, the Solomon Islands' energy use per capita was lower than Vanuatu's 158.17 units but higher than Kiribati's 107.77 units. This variability may be attributed to differences in economic development, industrialization, and population growth among these Pacific Island nations. The Solomon Islands' energy use per capita has shown a moderate decrease over the years, which could be influenced by shifts in energy policies or the implementation of renewable energy sources. A significant increase in investment in renewable energy technologies could potentially alter this trajectory and lead to a more sustainable energy future for the Solomon Islands.
