TRANSPORT AND CLIMATE PROFILE


Supported by:


Background

Fiji, a Pacific Island upper-middle-income economy, has a distinct transport-emissions profile, with this sector making a notable contribution to its overall carbon footprint. In 2024, transport activities emitted 712,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases (GHGs), constituting 26% of the nation's total emissions. Although transport emissions have markedly slowed—from 1.5% per year before 2015 to just 0.5% after the Paris Agreement—the sector remains vital to Fiji's decarbonization strategies. Road transport is the main source, making up 86% of transport emissions and 22% of the country's total GHG emissions. Domestic navigation and aviation each account for about 7%, driven by the geographic necessity of inter-island travel connectivity.

Transport and Climate Change

From a macroeconomic standpoint, Fiji has achieved notable decoupling of transport emissions from economic growth. The transport sector's carbon intensity decreased to 47.8 gCO2e per USD in 2024, down from 115.5 gCO2e in 2000. Although this is higher than the Asia-Pacific average of 29.0, it remains below the Pacific Islands subregional average of 56.6. Energy intensity also declined, reaching 0.79 megajoules per USD in 2022. Despite these improvements in efficiency, the sector still relies entirely on petroleum products, with biofuels and electricity making up 0% of energy use in 2022. This dependence on fossil fuels makes the economy vulnerable to international price fluctuations and creates social externalities, with contributions from road crashes (49%) and urban congestion (46%).

Adaptation and Resilience

Fiji's geographical position renders its transport infrastructure exceptionally vulnerable to climate-induced disruptions. Since 2000, the country has faced 29 recorded natural disasters, with storms accounting for 72% of these events, affecting 1.5 million people and costing at least $1.3 billion USD. The estimated potential average annual losses to transport infrastructure stand at $4.7 million USD, with roads (50%) and ports (28%) bearing the brunt of the risk. Looking toward long-term climate scenarios, a 4.5-degree temperature increase would expose more than 80% of Fiji's road and rail assets to extreme precipitation. Furthermore, 5% of the population resides in low-elevation coastal zones threatened by sea-level rise, necessitating a shift toward climate-informed design standards and resilient asset management.

Vehicle Fleet

The motorization rate in Fiji has risen to 167 vehicles per thousand population, with light-duty vehicles (LDVs) accounting for 77% of road network users. Although the value of electric vehicle (EV) imports reached $6 million USD by 2024, they represent only 2% of total road vehicle imports. Fiji's E-mobility Readiness Index score of 62 highlights strengths in energy availability but indicates a need for more robust policy and financial instruments to accelerate the transition. A significant structural challenge lies in the fiscal landscape: fuel tax revenues currently comprise approximately 10% of total government revenue. As electrification progresses, the government faces a structural decline in this revenue stream, requiring a strategic redesign of domestic financing mechanisms and transport taxation.

Transport and Climate Policy Documents

Fiji's policy framework, articulated through 35 relevant documents including the Third Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC 3.0) and the Low Emission Development Strategy (LEDS) 2018-2050, sets an ambitious target to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.2 The NDC outlines a 30% reduction in CO2 emissions from the energy sector by 2030 compared to business-as-usual (BAU), with 10% of this goal being unconditional. Specific transport targets include a 40% reduction in domestic maritime shipping emissions and a 14% reduction in road transport emissions by 2035. Priority policy measures focus on maritime improvements, biofuel integration, and public transport enhancements. However, only 27% of current measures incorporate climate adaptation or resilience components, suggesting that, while mitigation strategies are well advanced, integrating resilience into transport planning remains a critical area for future policy alignment.

Fiji's "Avoid" strategies aim to decrease reliance on motorized travel by promoting integrated land-use planning and improving digital connectivity. The Fiji Maritime and Land Transport Policy stresses linking main port and airport planning with urban growth to enhance mobility. Additionally, the 5-Year and 20-Year National Development Plan recommend implementing better transport management systems and considering peak-period public transport zoning to ease urban congestion. In aviation, Fiji's State Action Plan on CO2 Emissions Reduction from International Aviation advocates digitizing flight manuals and magazines to lower aircraft weight and fuel consumption. These efforts align with the National Climate Change Policy 2018 - 2030, which supports investing in urban green spaces to enhance pedestrian experiences and curb the growth of private land transport sector.

The "Shift" pillar focuses on moving passengers and freight away from high-carbon private vehicles toward more sustainable public and non-motorized transportation. Fiji's Third Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC3.0) emphasizes encouraging a switch in transport modes by making public transport more attractive and investing in infrastructure for bicycles and e-bikes. The NDC Investment Plan supports this with major initiatives like the LifeCycle Initiative, which finances the import of up to 10,000 standard and e-bikes, and efforts to create urban car-free zones. For maritime transport, the Fiji Low Emission Development Strategy 2018-2050 aims to transition toward zero-carbon passenger ferries and promote traditional sailing canoes, reducing dependence on fossil-fuel-powered outboard motors. Additionally, the 5-Year and 20-Year National Development Plan plans to expand rapid transit options, including feasibility studies for rail transport in selected areas regions.

"Improve" strategies focus on enhancing vehicle technical efficiency and promoting cleaner energy sources. A key goal is the widespread electrification of the national fleet; the Fiji Low Emission Development Strategy 2018-2050 aims for 100% electric vehicle (EV) adoption across all sectors by 2040 under its most ambitious scenario. This effort is supported by the National Development Plan 2025-2029, which encourages electric bus pilot projects and boosts investments in charging infrastructure. Besides electrification, the Fiji National Energy Policy 2013-2020 advocates for biofuel use, including a 10% ethanol petrol blend (E10) and 5% biodiesel (B5). Additionally, the Fiji State Action Plan on CO2 Emissions Reduction from International Aviation outlines plans to acquire fuel-efficient, new-generation aircraft and integrate sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) to reach a 10% SAF blend by 2030. To maximize these efforts, the NDC Investment Plan recommends strict age limits and Euro-5/6 emissions standards for imported vehicles, along with national vehicle scrappage schemes to phase out inefficient legacy fleets.
