The Pacific Energy and Gender Network (PEG) is a regional initiative to connect, inform and mobilize people and organizations committed to achieving gender equality in energy use. PEG aims to become a dynamic network of women and men around the Pacific and internationally, towards a viable solution for the 'available, reliable, affordable, environmentally sound energy for sustainable development and gender equity for all Pacific Islanders'. Many countries in the Pacific and the world have set a standard of differing roles and responsibilities for men and women according to the social forms of division of labour based on gender differentials. Energy use by diverse gender groups is traced back from decades. There have been various interests in terms of gender access in subsistence economy where men tend to emphasize the benefits of saving money on energy costs while women tend to emphasize the benefits of better health and time savings.
