    This webinar provides an overview of the evolving power system in Samoa as the country increases its integration of renewable energy resources. The presentation introduces the structure of the national grid operated by Electric Power Corporation Samoa and highlights recent operational challenges, including generation constraints, grid reliability, and the current energy situation. Particular attention is given to the technical challenges of operating a small island power system with high renewable penetration. Key lessons learned and potential strategies for maintaining reliable system operation during this transition are also discussed.
