The National Energy Authority is set to launch its Corporate Plan 2023-2027 today at the APEC Haus in Port Moresby.
The Authority was established by National Government in July 2021, with the objective of improving the overall coordination, effectiveness and delivery of domestic energy policy, regulation and governance.
The authority has the primary task of delivering the National Energy Policy target of providing 70% of households in PNG with electricity by 2030 and 100% by the 2050.
NEA is obliged to reciprocate the good will of PNG Electrification Partnership (PEP) countries and other partners by providing uninhibited and hands-on approach into all energy programs in PNG as agreed in the 2018 APEC and other arrangements.
This is the first ever Corporate Plan for Papua New Guinea in National Energy Authority, and is a significant milestone for the nation as it outlines the authority’s vision for the next five years.
This significant will be officiated by Minister for Energy and Petroleum and Kerema MPHon. Thomas Opa, Chief Justice Sir. Gibbs Salika, and NEA Managing Director Mr. Ronald Meketa.
