CARICOM Secretariat speaks to GTZ-CREDP on Energy/Renewable Energy have changed. First of all we talk about climate change and impact. 80% of climate change-related problems stem from energy conversion processes. We see the oil crisis; we have shortage of oil, fossil fuels also are greatly contributing to CO2 emissions. So all this together calls for energy policies that serve as guidance in formulation of long term strategies of Governments; what the Governments want to achieve in the long term. That means 10, 20 years. What are the major objectives? What should the energy future of a country look like? Should it keep on depending forever for fossil fuel? What sources should be developed? What measurements should be taken? What strategies? So it is very important to have a written Energy Policy as a baseline for any action to be taken to later on, implement this policy. Once a policy exists in writing, the second step is to come up with an action plan as to how the policy should be implemented. Such an action plan is usually more short term thinking; say 3 to 5 years and can be adopted easily. But as I said before, energy policy is very important. Many countries have started or have already completed drafts of Energy Policies. For instance, in St. Vincent the cabinet recently approved an Energy Policy. In Saint Lucia presently the Energy Policy is being discussed. In other countries it is under development. Once we have that policy it is easier to take action as a consequence of a written policy and not a patch-work action plan put together that is not underlying of a long term strategy. CJ: What sorts of considerations, what sorts of elements, go into an Energy Policy at this time? Ideally, what should be considered? TS: As part of an Energy Policy, of course there are institutional considerations. Who should have what responsibility? Which Ministries should be involved; what institutions should be consulted, advisory panels? Content-wise of course, Energy Policy has to address all areas, not only Renewable Energy, Energy Efficiency, but it also has to address fossil fuels. One thing is very clear. That is that the region will for the next decade depend to a certain extent on fossil fuel. We have to be realistic. Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency can greatly contribute to such a future but we still depend on fossil fuel. That means a larger part has to address the import of fossil fuels. Where does it come from? What amount should be imported? It also has to address concerns like the transport sector. That is also part of energy. A larger part of energy goes into transport sector, and of course the entire area. As mentioned Page 13 of 16
