Clean Power in Tourism: Heritage Park Hotel commissioned a large solar-plus-battery system supplying up to 95% of its electricity, cutting diesel and grid reliance. Fisheries Export Rules: EU food-safety changes under Delegated Regulation (EU) 2025/1449 are being rolled out via training in Suva, tightening freezer-vessel requirements and affecting about 97% of EU-listed Pacific Island-flagged vessels, with implications for Solomon Islands tuna exports.
