Climate change, combined with recent geopolitical developments, has sent shockwaves throughout the global economy, magnifying concerns around energy security, food security and weather-related disasters. Small island developing states (SIDS), which are amongst the lowest emitters worldwide, are most at risk from these potential threats. However, they are increasingly employing ambitious plans to deploy renewable energy in order to secure its multiple benefits. This technical paper presents a quantification of SIDS’ renewable energy targets, both in their national energy plans and in their NDCs, comparing commitments made within their national policies and plans with those that extend to the Paris Agreement...

The Exclusive Economic Zones of most of the Caribbean countries are larger than their land masses, however, the energy potential of this vast resource is not being exploited. Building the capacity of stakeholders in the sector to conduct assessments, and design, implement, operate and maintain projects is a crucial steppingstone to realizing energy independence for the region. The aim of this is to build the capacity of government technocrats, utility engineers, regulators, academics, students, and project developers on design and implement marine energy projects in the Caribbean.Click to view
