RE priorities: 
Maintaining and where possible expanding the provision of reliable and cost efficient power supplies, using traditional and renewable options, to all communities. ---Proportion of Tonga’s energy needs met by renewable energy increased.
RE targets: 
Government will work toward achieving the national target of 50% renewable energy, originally set for 2012, as part of government’s commitment to cutting costs and addressing climate change.
