In May 2014 the Barbados Light and Power Company (BL&P) invited proposals for an 8MW (AC) solar farm in St. Lucy. Approximately 40 companies bid on the project, mostly international ones and a few
Continue reading → Barbados continues to maintain a leadership position in solar energy within the Caribbean. Building on a successful Renewable Energy Rider program which has seen 9MW of distributed solar PV installed, the electricity market has finally opened up to independent power producers (IPPs) to develop utility scale solar projects.
One of the biggest, if not the biggest hurdle to further solar PV penetration in Barbados is the upfront cost of a system. When you think about the fact that the cost is essentially the prepayment of 25-30 years worth of electricity it makes sense that the price is “high”. If you could purchase a Continue reading →
The European Union and Barbados have taken an important step towards a sustainable energy future with the launch of the Renewstable Barbados project which aims to integrate solar power with on-site green hydrogen storage to provide a reliable, stable, and clean electricity supply to Barbados.
Now a very similar model is available in Barbados which allows Barbadians to own solar panels within an operating solar project and thereby earn solar passive income for 25 Continue reading → Getting involved in the funding of the global solar power transition has never been easier.
