Does Oceania have solar energy?

The preceding maps of Solar radiation (Solargis) and Wind energy (Global Wind Atlas) show that Oceania is able to be roughly split into regions close to the Equator and those farther away with different amounts of Solar radiation and ranges of Mean Wind Speeds. Solar Power appears to be the most significant source of Renewable Energy at this time.
