6 FAQs about [Solar electric energy Grenada]
Does Grenada have solar power?
Solar photovoltaics (PV) have high potential on Grenada because the country’s global horizontal irradiation exceeds 5 kWh/square meters per day. A 2- to 4-MW PV installation is planned, but no utility-scale solar plants are currently in operation.
How much does solar cost in Grenada?
According to data from 2014, the costs of utility-scale solar in Grenada are estimated to be between $0.21/kWh and $0.44/kWh; wind costs are estimated to be between $0.05/kWh and $0.20/kWh.
How much does electricity cost in Grenada?
The 2015 electricity rates in Grenada are $0.34 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), in line with the Caribbean regional average of $0.33/kWh. Like many island nations, Grenada is almost 100% reliant on imported fossil fuels for electricity generation, leaving it vulnerable to global oil price fluctuations that directly impact the cost of electricity.
Does Grenada have electricity?
Grenada’s electrical grid stretches across the three main inhabited islands and is served by a single electrical utility, Grenada Electricity Services Limited (GRENLEC), which has the exclusive license to generate, transmit, distribute, and sell electricity through December 31, 2073.
Does Grenada have a wind farm?
Grenada has had success with implementing energy effi-ciency and renewable energy projects. To date, GRENLEC has assessed five sites on the main island and two on Carriacou for wind farm feasibility. A wind-die-sel hybrid has been discussed for Petite Martinique, but its development is on hold.
What is the potential of geothermal power in Grenada?
Geothermal studies reveal a potential of approximately 50 MW of baseload power; two 20-MW geothermal projects have similarly stalled in development. Solar photovoltaics (PV) have high potential on Grenada because the country’s global horizontal irradiation exceeds 5 kWh/square meters per day.
