5 FAQs about [Solar energy plant Barbados]
Does Barbados use solar panels?
Solar panels are seen more and more frequently across Barbados. Similar to the ubiquitous solar water heater on Barbadian rooftops, the Government of Barbados is fully committed to the idea of renewable energy and solar PV, thereby preparing the country for even more substantial growth in this sector.
Is Barbados a leader in solar energy?
Barbados continues to maintain a leadership position in solar energy within the Caribbean. Building on a successful Renewable Energy Rider program which has seen 9MW of distributed solar PV installed, the electricity market has finally opened up to independent power producers (IPPs) to develop utility scale solar projects.
What is the installed solar PV capacity in Barbados?
The total installed solar PV capacity in Barbados is about 22MW (12MW RER + 10MW utility).
Should you buy a solar PV system in Barbados?
One of the biggest, if not the biggest hurdle to further solar PV penetration in Barbados is the upfront cost of a system. When you think about the fact that the cost is essentially the prepayment of 25-30 years worth of electricity it makes sense that the price is “high”. If you could purchase a Continue reading →
