offers to install appliance-connected energy controls or home energy storage systems (for customers who own PV systems). The newly installed assets will be controlled by EDF but aim to create energy savings for customers while at the same time developing demand response and grid stabilization capa-bilities.
To meet those challenges, Guadeloupe''s regional government has adopted proactive energy policies that will foster both energy independence and energy transition from fossil fuels. The energy plan adopted by the regional government therefore sets ambitious objectives for energy demand management and for the development of renewable energy in
Among these projects, the decarbonization of the EDF thermal power plant in Guadeloupe, which must replace fuel oil with liquid biomass mainly imported, or the project for the valorization of recovered solid fuels, from household waste, implemented by Albioma, the second largest overseas electricity producer.
emissions from renewable power is calculated as renewable generation divided by fossil fuel generation multiplied by reported emissions from the power sector. This assumes that, if renewable power did not exist, fossil fuels would be used in its place to generate the same amount of power and using the same mix of fossil fuels. In countries and
"Achieving energy independence in Guadeloupe by shifting from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources is a challenge that we must take up for the benefit of future generations. With clear objectives and applying the means for success, the Multi-Year Energy Program (PPE) exemplifies our political resolve to reach our goals."
Making use of local renewable energy seems the logical way to reduce the dependency on fossil fuel imports while at the same time reducing greenhouse gas emissions and the risk of fuel spills. In this article, three cases are presented of remote archipelagos with high ecological value that are struggling to move from fossil fuels to local
L''occasion pour Emmanuelle Wargon de préciser qu''un tiers de l''énergie est issu de sources renouvelables, en Guadeloupe. Les deux tiers sont donc fossiles (charbon, fuel).
This paper first introduces the Guadeloupean fossil fuel energy regime and its underlying moral economy. This ''state-led fossil developmentalism'' carries a promise of Guadeloupe''s deeper (economic and political) integration into the French national space.
In 2015, the world agreed in the Paris Agreement to limit global warming to well below 2 °C compared to the pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the global
The article examines the role of green hydrogen in reducing CO2 emissions in the transition to climate neutrality, highlighting both its benefits and challenges. It starts by
In the quest for fossil fuels, entire forests are wiped out, mountaintops are removed, and groundwater is poisoned. In the long term – and increasingly in the present – fossil fuels are untenable if human life is to
The two main advantages of replacing fossil diesel with biodiesel would be: less atmospheric emissions, and less environmental damage in the case of a spill [ , , ]. 4.5. Energy transition in the transport sector
Solar power is the fastest growing energy source in the archipelago. A large portfolio of new renewable energy projects are planned [ 80, 85 ]. The most remarkable is the previously mentioned Conolophus project on Santa Cruz Island (14.8 MWp and 40.9 MWh batteries).
Tourism and population growth will continue to pressure energy demand in most archipelagos in the coming years. A roadmap is necessary to replace the importation of diesel with local renewable sources, in which PV solar stands out as the most abundant and most economically viable option.
