CARICOM Secretariat speaks to GTZ-CREDP on Energy/Renewable Energy before, indigenous energy sources, Renewable Energy, Energy Efficiency, all these different areas have to be addressed in the Energy Policy. On the other hand, an Energy Policy should not be too specific when it comes particularly to quantification and tariffs; that in our understanding has nothing to do with the policy. That can be done in the rules and regulations of an Electricity Law. Like it is at the moment tariff structures are fixed in Electricity Laws, it doesn’t have anything to do with the policy. CJ: Based on the GTZ global experience, if you had to recommend a draft of a policy or a template that would suit say the island states of the Caribbean. What part of the world would that come from? TS: Ideally it should come from a part of the world where energy supplies is diversified and Renewable Energies are greatly used. That is in Europe. We see great potential and advance in the United States. But I think countries in Europe like Germany have quite some progress with feed-in- law. It does not make sense to copy these laws as certain conditions that would work in Europe would not work here. I think it would be wise to visit these laws and to see whether certain elements would be appropriate here, like for instance, creation of incentives, cross subsidy; not government subsidy but consumer subsidies in order to push certain developments like financing or compensation for more expensive technologies Certain elements can certainly be taken over into law here and that is what we also do. This is part of our advice to governments that we try to carefully analyse elements of other laws and to advise which parts may be adopted here. JW: Why do you think electric utilities form a significant part of the energy sector? TS: Utilities are key for the energy sector for several reasons. We have here in the Caribbean a situation where in many territories the utilities have the universal monopoly. That is a fact whether you like it or not. And in certain aspects it should not be changed, or if at all, changed very carefully. We have small markets, small islands, and the competition could also help to bring certain developments forward. That means utilities would have important roles in the territories. In our project given the fact the utilities have the mandate, they have the licenses, and they know their business, they are our natural partners in developing Renewable Energies. Of course some are hesitant, because they associate Renewable Energies with higher risks that come with a new technology. They are not confident about how it works, and this is part of our work; to help them to understand the technology, to Page 14 of 16
