Energy Snapshot Curacao This profile provides a snapshot of the energy landscape of Curacao, an autonomous member of the Kingdom of the Netherlands located of the coast of Venezuela. Curacao’s utility rates are approximately $0.26 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), below the Caribbean regional average of $0.33/kWh.
The implementation of a Battery Energy Storage System will allow Curaçao to collect energy from renewable sources such as wind and solar energy and store it using advanced battery storage technologies. This stored energy can be released to mitigate the intermittency of wind power and ensure grid stability.
In 2009, Curacao developed an energy policy document, which sets out general guidance and governing principles for further study of energy issues.4 It suggests the goal of reducing energy consumption by 40% by 2020 and encour- ages the investigation of combining wind power with storage to provide 100% of the island’s energy needs.
With modern-day automation and technology developing at record speed, the global demand for electricity grows at an incredible rate. It appears the world has an insatiable appetite for energy – and Curaçao is no exception.
Increasing capacity through wind energy is part of the Curaçao energy transition in which Aqualectra has a leading role. During the signing of the energy purchase agreement (PowerPurchase Agreement), both the management of Aqualectra and NuCapital underlined the mutual trust and good cooperation between the two companies.
Curacao’s long history with wind energy has provided it with valuable experience in integrating variable energy resources into the electrical system while also demonstrating the value of avoiding petroleum-based electricity generation.
