CARICOM Secretariat speaks to GTZ-CREDP on Energy/Renewable Energy We have limited hydro power in St. Vincent and Grenada. Maybe some in Trinidad and Tobago not significant. Then of course Guyana. Guyana particularly has a huge potential of hydro power which is largely untapped and the same is true for Suriname. But Suriname already has a large hydro power plant in operation which supplies a major part of energy in Suriname. CJ: Thomas, take a minute and explain how water is used to provide power? TS: Basically, it is the energy of the water flowing through a pipeline. That means there are two variables that determine the power we can harness from hydro power sources; the head between the water flows into what we call a penstock and the level where the turbine is installed where we turn the kinetic energy into electricity. Let’s put it in this way that means always the amount of water and the height between the upper and the lower levels of hydro power plant determines the capacity of the hydro power plants. That’s basically how it works that means if you run a river or a hydro power water source through a pipeline system it creates a pressure which you can turn into electricity by a turbine and the combined generator into electricity at the end of what we call penstock. CJ: Wind Energy. TS: While we have hydro power only in certain parts of the Caribbean. Wind energy is almost omnipresent in the entire Caribbean. Basically the Caribbean, particular the Windward Islands, lie exactly in the path of the trade winds that blow through the Atlantic from Europe and we have a rather steady direction of wind from the North East particularly the countries that lie in the forefront. The Leeward Islands, like Antigua, St. Kitts going right down to Saint Lucia, St. Vincent, Dominica all the way particularly on the East Coast have considerable wind energy potential. We from the CREDP/GTZ project did a couple of years of measurements in St. Vincent and in Saint Lucia. We also assisted with taking some measurements in Dominica. We had a look at wind power measurements which were taken by the Caribbean Development Bank and the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States back in the 80s. So overall, there is considerable wind power potential in the entire Caribbean which is not harnessed at all. We already have wind farms that are operational in Guadeloupe, Curacao and in Bonaire. There is a new one in Jamaica; a major one called the Wigton Wind Farm which was commissioned in 2004. It contributes 20 megawatts roughly to the overall energy supply in Page 4 of 16PDF Image | Caribbean Renewable Energy Development
