15.1.1 The electricity market in Saint Lucia LUCELEC is one of the top-performing electricity utilities in the Caribbean and is the sole provider of electricity in Saint Lucia. It holds an exclusive license to generate, transmit, distribute, and sell electricity in Saint Lucia until 2045. Saint Lucia has almost universal coverage; LUCELEC provides electricity to 96 percent of households. Almost all electricity sold is generated using diesel generation—solar generation only makes up 100 kW of Saint Lucia’s installed capacity. At the end of 2014, LUCELEC reported an installed diesel capacity of 86.2 MW and a peak demand of 57.2 MW.395 LUCELEC’s reserve margin—calculated as the difference between installed capacity and peak demand divided by total peak demand—was 51 percent in 2014. 400 350 300 266 250 200 96 150 100 50 0 302 105 171 315 331 333 333 334 334 FIGURE 15.1 Demand for Electricity in Saint Lucia by Sector, 2004–2014 284 99 101 2005 2006 Commercial 298 277 108 114 151 158 161 168 171 179 189 191 193 193 191 2004 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 Source: LUCELEC, Annual Reports 2004–2014.

The ESA grants LUCELEC the exclusive right to supply electricity until 2045—a period of 80 years. In addition to the ESA, the sector’s development is guided by the government’s National Energy Policy (2010). The National Energy Policy establishes the government’s plans to reform the energy sector and expand the supply of renewable energy to lower the cost and the price volatility of energy. 112 113 112 173 Electricity Sales (GWh)PDF Image | Unlocking Geothermal Power Eastern Caribbean Powerhouse
