12.2 Status of Geothermal Development Dominica has one of the best-explored and most promising geothermal resources in the Eastern Caribbean countries. The government has confirmed geothermal potential of 120 MW.231 In March 2014, the government drilled its first commercial production well, which has a capacity of 11 MW.232 The government’s project to develop the country’s geothermal resources includes two phases. The first phase is building a 10 MW power plant to supply electricity in Dominica. The second phase is building a larger power plant and interconnection cables to export electricity to Guadeloupe and Martinique.233 The government’s next step is to reach an agreement with developers to build and operate the first power plant. 12.1.2 Resource potential and development The government has advanced considerably in developing Dominica’s geothermal resources. It confirmed the geothermal resource potential of the Wotten Waven–Trafalgar–Laudat geothermal field (“the Wotten Waven field”) through exploratory and production well drilling. Dominica has a total estimated geothermal potential of 200–500 MW,234 has a confirmed geothermal potential of 120 MW,235 and has drilled a commercial production well with generation capacity of 11 MW.236 The 200–500 MW estimated potential is based on surface-level reconnaissance work and has not been proven through drilling. The government also completed an environmental impact study for production wells in 2013.237 To date, the country has spent about US$20 million exploring and developing geothermal sites.238 Donors have financed most of these costs. The government confirmed the 120 MW resource by drilling three exploratory wells between December 2011 and June 2012.239 These wells were drilled in the Wotten Waven field. The cost of exploratory drilling alone was US$11.7 million.240 The government also received a US$2.6 million grant from the European Union Caribbean Investment Fund to develop geothermal resources in Dominica.241 Furthermore, the government received a ¤6.5 million concessionary loan from the AFD to finance the drilling and testing of the commercial production well.242 The government used this funding to drill a reinjection well during November–December 2013, and a commercial production well during January–March 2014.243 Both these wells were drilled in the Wotten Waven field. 104PDF Image | Unlocking Geothermal Power Eastern Caribbean Powerhouse
