St Lucia Energy Storage Policy A Roadmap for Renewable
St. Lucia is embracing innovative energy storage solutions to stabilize its grid and accelerate renewable adoption. This article explores how the island''s new policy framework addresses
The path to Saint Lucia's planned energy transition requires massive deployment of an applicable set of proven clean-energy technologies, taking advantage of the country's full renewable energy potential, particularly solar, wind, and geothermal resources.
Saint Lucia relies on imported petroleum products for energy production. This dependence on tourism and imported petroleum products to support economic development goals has made Saint Lucia highly vulnerable to factors outside the country's control.
Total electricity generating capacity in Saint Lucia is about 93 MW. Fossil fuel-based generating capacity, operated by St. Lucia Electricity Services, Ltd. (LUCELEC), amounts to 88.4 MW, about 95 percent of total electricity generating capacity. Installed generating capacity from renewable energy is 4.7 MW, of which LUCELEC operates 3 MW.
Petroleum products account for about 92 percent of Saint Lucia's primary energy supply.6 The remaining 8 percent of primary energy supply comes from renewable energy sources, mostly from solar energy.
