3.1.3 Industry and Commercial Buildings The industrial sector is small and there have been very little investments in new industries. Energy efficiency factors are low in most factories. This is due to a combination of aspects including operating below rated capacity and the use of old inefficient technologies. Industrial energy efficiency is extremely low compared to other countries of the Central American Isthmus. The actual percentage that may be achieved through energy efficiency can be determined through energy audits. However, current energy data is limited, unreliable and outdated. The value of energy audits is limited if results cannot be compared to a baseline. 3.1.4 Households and Institutions Most households use LPG and electricity. Poor rural households have resorted to charcoal and firewood burned in a variety of largely inefficient traditional cook stoves. Improved stoves and kilns, as well as substitution fuels (LPG and kerosene) for cooking, are not extensively spread due to their cost. General lack of awareness and other different socio-economic factors are the most important challenges of the sub-sector. Most urban households use electricity for lighting, whereas the majority of rural households use kerosene, which is more expensive. The use of incandescent lamp light bulbs is widespread. Appliances found in households (refrigerators, deep freezers, air conditioners, etc.) are often old, bought in the secondhand market and therefore inefficient. New standards and labeling for appliances are needed. 3.1.5 Agriculture Agriculture accounts for some 21.3% of Belize’s GDP, albeit fuel consumption is negligible because of the largely non-mechanical nature of the sector. Energy consumption in agriculture is not accounted for in the national energy balance. There are very few agro-based industries. The amount of diesel used in farms is minimal. Some government programs supported by the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA), IDB, CARICOM and other international organizations and NGOs, in which energy will play a significant part, involve agriculture sector modernization. The aim is to improve the agricultural sector by 2020. The potential use of agricultural residues to produce energy, particularly ethanol, is technically feasible and should be explored in a prospective energy policy. 27
