Figure 4: Household solar knowledge in Samoa. While the majority (79 per cent) of households reported that they do not have back-up power, there were 19 per cent of households are investing in back-ups to grid energy due to outages.
1. Introduction This publication is the 2nd Energy Accounts ever produced, following the compilation of the first Experimental Energy Account for Samoa using the 2016 Samoa Energy Review by the Ministry of Finance. The Energy Accounts 2020 presents estimates on physical supply and use of energy (in joules1) for Samoa.
Table 1 is a summary of the Energy Supply and Use components for Samoa in 2020. Samoa's energy supply totaled approximately 5,282 TJ where imported energy products accounted for an estimated 69.8 % (3,689 TJ) of total supply while natural inputs from the environment accounted for the remaining 30.2 % (1,593 TJ). Source: SBS, 2022.
In 2016, ASREC adopted a goal to meet 50% of American Samoa's energy needs from renewable resources by 2025 and 100% by 2040. 87 ASREC developed strategies to assess and use American Samoa's renewable resources and considered ways to reduce petroleum use in land-based vehicles. 88, 89, 90
One of Samoa's main goals for the energy sector is to achieve 70.0 % renewable energy use by the end of 2031, as stipulated in the Pathway for the Development of Samoa (PDS 2021/22- 2025/26). The Energy Account also provides statistics to assess and monitor the progress of that goal.
Hence, Overall Total Electricity Production is estimated at 609.2 TJ (Refer PSUT). Conversion: 1 kWh = 3.6 Megajoules; then divide by 1000,000 to convert into Terajoules; or simply divide the kWh by 277,778 to get Terajoules. Note: Electricity Industry own uses and losses.

A 60kWh (kilowatt-hour) battery refers to an energy storage unit capable of delivering 60 kilowatts of power over one hour. This measurement is commonly used in electric vehicles (EVs) and residential energy storage systems to quantify total usable energy capacity. Battery capacity is the total amount of energy an EV's battery can store, measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh). Think of it as the size of the gas tank, but for electricity. It is a large home energy storage system designed for households that want longer backup time, higher solar self-consumption, stronger outage protection, or a more independent off-grid power setup. For some homes, 60kWh is oversized.
