The Executive Committee of the Multilateral Fund has approved funding to Antigua and Barbuda in the amount of US$844,546 as of 2024-05-31. This includes the funding for current ongoing projects (including agency fees):
Antigua and Barbuda enjoy one of the Caribbean''s best solar climates, making solar energy a strong option. Solar water heaters are already in use, saving both electricity and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Energy Snapshot - Antigua and Barbuda Author: Victoria Healey, Laura Beshilas, Kamyria Coney, and Gary Jackson Subject: 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.
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.

by the Government of Antigua and Barbuda, several renewable energy technologies have been analysed. The current power system of the country is widely dominated by conventional fossil fuel generation. Hence, multiple renewable energy options were explored. These include utility-scale solar photovoltaics (PV), distributed solar PV
The Roadmap charts a path for the Government of Antigua and Barbuda, providing options for achieving a 100% renewable energy share in both the power and transport sectors by 2030 and 2040, respectively.
This document presents Antigua and Barbuda''s Energy Report Card (ERC) for 2021. The ERC provides an overview of the energy sector performance in Antigua and Barbuda''s. The ERC also includes energy efficiency, technical assistance, workforce, training and capacity
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.
By increasing the renewable energy capacity and decommissioning the Wadadli power plant and its six 6 MW generators, as per the plans, Antigua and Barbuda can save around 3.6 million litres of heavy fuel oil per year.
In the previous scenario, a larger share of generation was coming from solar PV, while with the deployment of EVs we see a more even share between solar PV and wind. Almost 50% of the total load of Antigua and Barbuda is being met by the solar arrays, while around 46% is covered by the wind turbines.
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.
