The results of a reconnaisance survey into the energy potential and development prospects of wave energy reaching the blow-holes area along the South Coast of Tongatapu, Kingdom of Tonga

Date modified: 15 February 2022

Wave(passive) energy concept : This document was submitted in the 8th CCOP/SOPAC annual session. In 1978 the Mineral Resources Department recognized that Fiji has excellent locations for the application of this concept. In Fiji many potential sites have been recognized, and further work is intended to select the best sites for more detailed studies. On Fiji's Coral Coast alone eight potential sites have been identified in a preliminary desk study (Crown Agents Report 1979). If all were developed they could supply 130 megawatts, well in excess of Fiji's present total electrical power capacity.
