ANNEX II - ENERGY SECTOR DIAGNOSTIC Notwithstanding the small amount of solar PV in use, Grenada enjoys high levels of solar irradiation24, on the order of 5 to 6 kWh/m2/day. Solar water heating is already in use for providing hot water to private residences, hotels and other commercial buildings, but its use falls far short of the widespread penetration achieved in nearby Barbados, for example. Wind No significant wind energy resource development has yet taken place in Grenada. A single private hotel owner installed an 80 kW wind turbine in 2007, which during 2008 was in the process of being grid-connected. The process has not been completed because of a number of technical challenges with the turbine system. GRENLEC has been carrying out wind speed measurements at two privately-owned sites, which the company is in negotiations to lease from their owners. The data collected from the sites so far are reported by GRENLEC to be “promising”, with wind speeds averaging about 7.6 meters per second at both sites. GRENLEC’s projections of future generation capacity show 6 MW of wind capacity in place in 2013. The company is considering wind/diesel/solar hybrid power as feasible options for providing significant amounts of energy to Carriacou and Petit Martinique. The Govern- ment of Grenada has submitted a funding request to the ACP-EU Energy Facility to support this renewable energy project in the sister islands. The project proposes the installation of 2 MW of name plate capacity wind turbines (Carriacou) use of back-up diesel generators, battery storage, desalination and ice making/storage (an additional economic benefit to the indigenous fishing communities) to balance power demand and mitigate the inherent challenge of the intermittency of wind and solar power. It is intended that both Carricaou and Petite Martinique will be 75% renewable by the end of 2013. Estimated capital costs for this project are US$4.5M. This GRENLEC initiative is fully supported by the GOG, which has submitted a funding request to the EU with GRENLEC as a Partner. Waste-to-Energy (WTE) There is significant interest in WTE as an energy option in Grenada. GRENLEC has stated their interest in developing municipal solid waste as an alternative energy source and have conducted an analysis of the waste stream and content to inform their plans. Accordingly, their capacity projections show an addition of 1.5 MW of municipal Waste-to-Energy capacity in 2013. In addition, the Grenada Solid Waste Management Authority is very keen to be able to dispose of municipal solid waste by an environmentally acceptable method that simultane- ously produces energy. A recent study25 commissioned by the GSWMA has identified a potential WTE project with a projected capital cost of US$48M after comparing three options: (i) mass incineration, (ii) high heating value incineration and (iii) gasification. The feasibilty of converting MSW and agricultural waste into an alternative fuel (e.g. natural gas or diesel equivalents) for transportation is also being investigated. Options may include the conversion of vehicle fleets (e.g. refuse collection vehicles). 24.
