- W1864211030 abstract "The power sector is integral to economic development and inclusive growth in the Caribbean region. The high cost of electricity is undermining the regions competitiveness and growth; and creating hardship for citizens. The high cost of electricity is largely a result of the region's heavy reliance on expensive, imported fuel oil and diesel for power generation. It will be important to diversify the generation mix of power systems in the Caribbean and enhance energy efficiency in order to lower costs and increase reliability as a means towards improving business competitiveness and promoting shared economic growth. Preliminary assessments indicate significant unexploited geothermal potential, especially in the Eastern Caribbean that can supply base-load power for local markets and beyond. Geothermal resource risks are a major barrier during the early phases of development as it creates uncertainty surrounding the viability of the investment. Attracting credible and experienced developers is essential for developing the resources in line with proven industry practices, and in compliance with international standards. Following successful geothermal resource confirmation, there will be continued need to mobilize greater levels of financing to complete the remaining development. Special consideration is needed for integrating geothermal power into relatively small and isolated island systems in the Eastern Caribbean. Inter-island transmission interconnections provide an opportunity to exploit the Eastern Caribbean's full geothermal potential; and promote regional integration. Geothermal developments largely beneficial for the environment and local communities and following industry practices and international standards will adequately address its potential impacts. It will be important for each jurisdiction to mandate its own environmental and social standards based on international best practices; and monitor to ensure compliance with those standards by project developers." @default.
