The islands of Tuvalu are narrow atolls composed of coral, so a football field could only be located at the broadest part of the main island of . The football field on Tuvalu is built on a base, with river clay shipped in from to create a surface on which grass has grown. This improved the football field's condition, although the surface remains hard and is not uniformly flat.

The two types of stand-alone photovoltaic power systems are direct-coupled system without batteries and stand alone system with batteries. The basic model of a direct coupled system consists of a solar panel connected directly to a dc load. As there are no battery banks in this setup, energy is not stored and hence it is capable of powering common appliances like fans, pum.
