The Caribbean Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (CCREEE) invited colleagues from utilities, regulatory bodies, and regional universities (lecturers and graduate students) to join a capacity-building session focused on the Integration of Hydropower.
This video is a complete recording of the Solar Integration Webinar hosted by the CCREEE and facilitated by the University of the West Indies.
This report highlights the ongoing and previous work of the Agency to support countries through its various work packages, including those concerned with project development, financing and investment. Keywords: Antigua and Barbuda, Bahamas, Belize, St. Kitts and Nevis, Caribbean, Barbados, Granada, Guyana, Dominica, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines
This capacity building session allowed CARICOM Member States to critically assess the outputs of the tools used in the integrated resource and resilience planning (IRRP) process and to have a greater appreciation for the importance of the inputs required to make the process meaningful. Course Content: Introduction to grid modelling in general and Power factory in particular
This technical guide is the first in a series of four technical guides on variable renewable energy (VRE) grid integration produced by the Energy Sector Management Assistance Program (ESMAP) of the World Bank and the Global Sustainable Electricity Partnership (GSEP). It provides a general overview of the intrinsic characteristics of VRE generation, mainly solar PV and wind, what the main challenges are along with some recommendations for VRE technical specifications, applicable standards, and essential testing. The main focus of the document presents a detailed outline of the essential requirements for VRE integration into the power grid. The requirements differ for...
Geothermal power production may result in significant greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. GHG emissions from geothermal power production, mostly in the form of CO2, are generally low in comparison to traditional base load thermal energy power generation. However, as the geothermal sector has expanded, a wider range of geothermal resources have been brought into exploitation, including geothermal systems with relatively high GHG concentrations in the reservoir fluid. Recent data from Italy (Mt. Amiata) and a number of sites in Turkey show that GHG emissions from geothermal power plants can be higher than 500 g/kWh and in some cases higher than 1000...

Solar radiation is essentially a free resource available anywhere on Earth, to a greater or lesser extent. Solar PV power plants convert solar radiation into electricity. In the current era of global climate change, PV technology becomes an opportunity for countries and communities to transform or develop their energy infrastructure and step up their low-carbon energy transition. Until now, a global and harmonized assessment of country-level PV potential has not existed. This report aims to provide an aggregated and harmonized view on solar resource and PV power potential from the perspective of countries and regions, assuming a utility-scale installation of...
