National Energy Authority (NEA)

A Memorandum of Understanding (MoA) will be signed to set the basis for partnership in energy-related developments and more importantly, work towards achieving the targets of the National Government in rolling out comprehensive electricity coverage for the country.

The proposed MOU will provide the basis for partnership in areas of consultation, policy development, training and research in the evolving energy space.

UOT Vice Chancellor Dr. Ora Renagi commended NEA for reaching out to the university for assistance and involvement in energy-related developments.  

NEA Managing Director, Ronald Meketa and NML Strategic Engagement Manager, Tim Bryson said this is a first of its kind for the extractive industry leading the way for other capital-intensive operators and net emitters operating in PNG, to align their operations with the government’s vision to discourse the country’s lack of electricity coverage by developing renewable energy projects throughout the country.
