These Islands typically have much natural renewable energy source. We should be able to take advantage of these natural resources to develop energy sufficiency and clean energy.In this study, we take Wangan Island as an example, and use EnergyPLAN as a tool for evaluating the potential of renewable energy in order to develop a 100% renewable energy system for Wangan Island. Firstly, the potential of various renewable energy has been evaluated. Furthermore, the EnergyPLAN has been used to simulate power consumption of islands. The research finding indicates that the island has a potential to produce 474.26 GWh by renewable energy. This is 6.41 GWh of annual electricity demand of 74 times per year. Hourly electricity demand can be completely supplied by renewable energy. There are 468.43 GWh of electricity provides an output and would reduce 350,210 tons of CO2 yearly. This study found that investment in renewable energy for islands, not only Self-Sufficiency with Clean Energy, and can also reduce carbon emissions to address climate issues, to improve energy supply security
