3 A Problem
4 A Problem Residents of Caribbean nations face very high electricity and transportation fuel costs that have measurably negative impacts on its economic performance.

8 Reasons
9 Reasons What explains these high costs of energy?
10 Reasons What explains these high costs of energy? The Jamaican energy matrix illustrates the reasons for these prices

13 o Therefore, the realistic scope for generating o All generation capacity is thermal, based on fossil fuels, which are almost all imported o Thermal generation wastes on average around 2/3 of the energy input to generation o Transport uses about ½ of total supply and it s very difficult to shift transport away from oil products on a large scale

26 Source: IDB (2013) Pre-Feasibility Study of the Potential Market for Natural Gas as a Fuel for Power Generation in the Caribbean System Cost: Gas vs Other Sources Geothermal (100MW) Anaerobic Digestion / Biogas (2MW) Bagasse cogeneration Landfill gas to energy (internal combustion) Commercial SWH (70kW) Wind (850kW) Hydro Residential SWH (2kW) Solar PV (utility scale) Seawater Air Conditioning (2MW) Solar PV (commercial scale) Solar PV (small scale) Wind (10kW) OTEC (5MW) Gas Turbine, fuel cost US$0.15/kWh 0.14 LSD/HFO, all in cost US$0.16/kWh Firm Technology Non-Firm, Less Reliable Technology Non-Firm Technology US$/kWh
27 Conclusions Scope for savings from diversifying from fuel oil to nonconventional renewable sources (small-scale wind, solar water heating, bagasse) exist in a small scale Problems of intermittency and reliability remain very important with solar, wind Geothermal is a very attractive solution for countries with the underground endowment Only realistic large-scale diversification would be from fuel oil to natural gas Economies of scale of supply Ability to replace fuel oil with gas for generation Even expanding current NCR installed capacity to 10% of total, reliance on fuel oil remains around 70-90%
