use. Additionally, monitoring and evaluation; setting reporting standards; and data reporting to the appropriate domestic agency on the use, achievement in goals/objectives, and targets of non-renewable energy resources also should be included in this section. 3.3.13.3 Transportation Sector The policy statements are quite benign and devoid of specifics. One policy, for example, is that the government will “encourage the importation of fuel efficient vehicle.” This policy statement does not indicate how it will be done. Another example is that the government will “discourage the importation of vehicles that are more than five years old.” This raises the question as to the form and nature of such discouragement. Further, for this sector it might be important to include provisions in terms of fuel use– fuel mix in public transportation vehicles, and for mechanisms to promote the use of public transportation. Additionally, the review and possible amendment of traffic and transportation management plans are critical to ensuring energy efficiency in transportation sector. 3.3.13.4 Power Sector There should be included a policy requirement that the power sector utilize renewable sources of energy in the provision of energy services. Provisions on net-metering/net-billing and feed-in tariffs also are notably absent. 3.3.13.5 Hotel and Tourist Sector Energy audits for the energy sector should not only be encouraged but be required, especially considering the high rate of energy consumption in this services sector. Energy use/efficiency standards also should be established for this sector. 3.3.13.6 Industrial Sector Energy audits/data reporting also should be required of this sector. 3.3.14 Sustainable Energy Plan The current plan of action for the government of Dominica centers on a 3-year study of geothermal development on the island, funded by approximately U.S. $7 million from the European Union and AFD (Agence Française de Développement). The study is to technically prove the resources at the Wotten Waven site, by further drilling and geological characterization. It also will recommend domestic utility policy and analyze power interconnections to Guadeloupe and Martinique (Fadelle 2009, pp. 19–27). In the short term, the government also intends to address the weaknesses in its current energy policy. It will refine the 2006 ESA to clarify regulations for IPPs, and adopt renewable energy legislation and regulations, per World Bank recommendations (Fadelle 2009, p. 28). Secondary to these goals, the Dominica Energy Development Programme also calls for studies of additional hydropower and geothermal sites, energy audits of government facilities, and incentives to encourage use of solar hot water systems in homes and hospitality sectors (Fadelle 2009, p. 34). Lastly, the Energy Unit intends to draft a SEP which will detail the strategy to achieve the NEP through opportunities for local labor and foreign investment (Fadelle 2009, pp. 31–33). 3.3.15 Conclusions and Recommendations Previous studies have made the following recommendations for Dominica. 49
