Abstract

Existing studies on Fiji’s energy law fail to examine the barriers to renewable energy development. This article will address current gaps in regulatory analysis and argue that current discourse on Fiji’s energy sector reforms requires a paradigm shift. It will be demonstrated that the current paradigms of hard-law energy reform in Fiji are misplaced in their adoption of a state-centric and traditionally-Western approach. As an alternative, this article will explore the viability of the renewable energy co-operative model as a potential institutional and regulatory framework to reform energy regulation in Fiji.
