Antigua and Barbuda: Many of us want an overview of how much energy our country consumes, where it comes from, and if we''re making progress on decarbonizing our energy mix. This page provides the data for your chosen country across all of the key metrics on this topic.
Antigua and Barbuda''s utility rates are approximately $0.37 U.S. dollars (USD) per kilowatt-hour (kWh), which is above the Caribbean regional average of $0.33 USD/kWh. Like many island nations, Antigua and Barbuda is almost entirely reliant on imported fossil fuels, leaving it vulnerable to global oil price fluctuations
Targets Renewable Energy Energy Efficiency Transportation In Place Proposed Prepared by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), a national laboratory of the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy; NREL is operated by the Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC.
renewable energy roadmap will support the NDC revision process by looking into least-cost, high-impact pathways for fully decarbonising Antigua and Barbuda''s power and transport sectors by 2030 and 2040 respectively. This roadmap charts the way forward for decarbonising Antigua and Barbuda''s power and transport sectors
The 2022 Energy Report Card for Antigua and Barbuda provides an overview of energy sector performance and includes energy efficiency, projects, technical assistance, workforce, training and capacity building information, subject to the availability of data.
This document presents Antigua and Barbuda''s Energy Report Card (ERC) for 2020. The ERC provides an overview of the energy sector performance in Antigua and Barbuda. The ERC also includes energy efficiency, technical assistance, workforce, training and capacity building information, subject to the availability of data.
developing areas. Energy self-sufficiency has been defined as total primary energy production divided by total primary energy supply. Energy trade includes all commodities in Chapter 27 of the Harmonised System (HS). Capacity utilisation is calculated as annual generation divided by year-end capacity x 8,760h/year. Avoided
This profile provides a snapshot of the energy landscape of Antigua and Barbuda, an independent nation in the Leeward Islands in the eastern Caribbean Sea. Antigua and Barbuda’s utility rates are approximately $0.37 U.S. dollars (USD) per kilowatt-hour (kWh), which is above the Caribbean regional average of $0.33 USD/kWh.
This is considering solar, wind, and storage, and not considering hydrogen. Includes hydrogen electrolyser, storage and fuel cell for power-to-hydrogen and hydrogen-to-power. The current power system of Antigua and Barbuda is highly dominated by fossil fuel generation, with only a 3.55% renewable energy share.
From the figure, it is also clear that the HOMER optimisation has estimated solar energy to be the more dominant source of electricity in Antigua and Barbuda to serve most of the load. The dominance of solar PV in meeting most of the total load in this scenario is clearer when observing the installed capacity by technology in Figure 21.
Antigua and Barbuda published a draft of its National Energy Policy in December 2010, with the dual goals of reducing energy costs by diversifying away from fossil fuels and driving development of new technologies and sectors.
The current power system is widely dominated by fossil fuel generation, and with the plans in place as of 2020, the renewable share would merely increase to 9%. To significantly increase its share of renewables, Antigua and Barbuda should follow the pathway of the optimal system scenario outlined in the Roadmap.
The results of the optimisation performed for the current power system of Antigua and Barbuda have confirmed that today’s power system is highly dominated by fossil fuels with merely 3.55% of the electricity share coming from renewables.
