Tuvalu Electricity Corporation (TEC) is a state-owned enterprise. TEC was established by the Tuvalu Electricity Corporation Act 1990. A sole provider of electricity services to the rest of the Tuvalu.

TEC has set a vision of “Powering Tuvalu with Renewable Resources” and this align well with the Tuvalu Government set target of 100% renewable energy by 2025.

All the islands of Tuvalu are on 24/7 power supply and the access rate is 100%.  The outer islands are powered by hybrid solar PV system with diesel generator on standby.  For the main island of Funafuti there are some solar PV systems tied to the grid with diesel base load generators.

At present 19% the penetration level of renewable energy through solar power and still a lot to go to achieve the target.  There are some recent pipeline projects by the donor community, which will significantly increase the penetration level to a higher level.

The development of the TEC website is designed to provides helpful information to the local community, donor partners, or others who are looking for information of the power sector in Tuvalu.
