Christmas Island

Christmas Island, a remote Australian territory in the Indian Ocean, primarily relies on diesel generators for its power supply. The island uses Type I power plugs, which are common in Australia, with a standard voltage of 230V and a frequency of 50Hz. Due to its isolated location and small population, the power infrastructure is limited and heavily dependent on imported fuel. While the grid provides sufficient electricity for its residents, occasional outages can occur, making reliability moderate rather than exceptional. Efforts to integrate renewable energy sources, such as solar, are ongoing to reduce dependence on diesel. Overall, the power system meets the needs of the island but faces challenges in sustainability and resilience.
