CARICOM Secretariat speaks to GTZ-CREDP on Energy/Renewable Energy Jamaica. That wind farm is particularly interesting because it has already survived two hurricanes. Utilities are always a bit scared about wind and hurricanes in the Caribbean, but the wind farm in Wigton proves that this technology can be applied in the Caribbean. CJ: Wind farms are invariably in places that have been used by communities. I gather that the two could co-exist; for example, agriculture-type farming alongside a wind farm. TS: The major barrier for wind farms particularly on smaller islands is the availability of land. Wind farms and wind parks compete for use of land with housing and other types of infrastructure. Basically the problem is that we have a high degree of housing spread all over the islands so most islands have very few spots which are still not occupied by housing developments and schemes. That is the constraint of course. But on the other hand, if an area is used for agriculture or cattle feeding then there is no real conflict of use. Therefore it is shown that wind farms and agriculture can co-exist. For instance in Germany, in Europe you will see there are wind farms in agricultural areas. CJ: Photovaltaics? TS: Solar energy is even more present in the Caribbean where the radiation is roughly about a third higher and more intense than in Europe. It is known that in Europe and America, photovoltaics have developed tremendously over the last 20 years; particularly in Europe. I am German so I tend to always refer to Germany, which is leading in the development and use of PV technology. Here in the Caribbean we have two basic forms of solar energy that can be used. One, already well known to us is solar water heating. In this case particularly, Barbados has proven over the last decades that solar water heaters can practically be installed in every house. If you think of solar water heating in the tourism sector like for washing, laundries, showering for guests, etc. there is a tremendous demand for hot water and that can be done by solar. There is no need to continue to install electric water heaters in new houses. That is one technology. The other, equally interesting technology is what we call photovoltaic (PV). That is a technology where sunlight is converted directly into electricity by solar cells. We are just at the beginning of seeing that photovoltaics will play a larger role in the future of the Caribbean. One example which I always quote is Grenada. Over the last 2 to 3 years we have seen a development where in Grenada in the retail houses and also some hotels and supermarkets or larger malls have in the meantime Page 5 of 16PDF Image | Caribbean Renewable Energy Development
