The Montserrat Energy Unit is charged with the mandate of ensuring that the public is well aware of energy efficiency and conservation, developing a modern reliable and sustainable energy infrastructure, maximizing the use of indigenous energy resources and to establish governance, institutional, legal and regulatory framework to support future
To collaborate with various regional and international development partners to facilitate the implementation of Energy Efficiency, Energy Conservation and Renewable Energy programs and projects. The Montserrat Energy Department is launching the next phase of its Efficient Energy initiative by distributing 250 Plug-In Meter Readers.
Although wind energy has not yet been fully re-explored in Montserrat, a desktop study using RE-SAT wind resource maps was conducted to determine suitable locations for the implementation of wind energy. The outcome of this study was included in their first Environmental Statistics Compendium6in Montserrat, which was published in 2020.
(Montserrat Energy Policy 2016-2030). • In-country commitment is vital for the success of partnership projects: The lead partner in Montserrat, the Energy Unit at the Ministry for Communications, Work, Energy and Labour (MCWEL), facilitated the engagement with other organisations.
Montserrat’s utility rates start at $0.53 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) for residential customers, which is above the Caribbean regional average of $0.33/kWh. Like many island nations, Montserrat is almost entirely dependent on imported fossil fuels, leaving it vulnerable to global oil price fluctuations that directly impact the cost of electricity.
An Energy Task Force was created in Montserrat, which included the Energy Unit of MCWEL, the Program Management Office in Montserrat, MUL and a Blue Economy consultant, that was charged with the creation of an alternative IRP.
To go beyond this, Montserrat is developing plans to ensure the electricity system can operate reliably. The target of 100% was based on information provided from the 2010 geothermal study4, and an Early Market Engagement exercise in 2017 to procure a 2.5-5MW geothermal plant which would satisfy 100% of the Montserrat energy requirement.
