A new World Bank project is set to provide thousands of families across the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) with access to clean, reliable electricity. This initiative, announced on May 28, 2025, is a collaborative effort between the FSM government and the World Bank, aiming to enhance energy access in the region.

The project focuses on deploying renewable energy solutions, including solar power systems, to underserved communities. These installations are expected to reduce dependence on imported fossil fuels, lower energy costs, and contribute to environmental sustainability. By improving electricity access, the project aims to support economic development, enhance educational opportunities, and improve overall quality of life for residents in FSM.

This initiative aligns with global efforts to promote sustainable energy solutions and underscores the importance of international collaboration in addressing energy challenges in remote regions.
