Saint Lucia: 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.
Contact UsAt the same time, recent developments in energy efficiency, renewable energy, cleaner-burning fuels (e.g., natural gas), electricity storage, and advanced controls and metering present a myriad of opportunities. Saint Lucia's current electricity system is well managed, reliable, and equitable.
Total electricity generating capacity in Saint Lucia is about 93 MW. Fossil fuel-based generating capacity, operated by St. Lucia Electricity Services, Ltd. (LUCELEC), amounts to 88.4 MW, about 95 percent of total electricity generating capacity. Installed generating capacity from renewable energy is 4.7 MW, of which LUCELEC operates 3 MW.
Key research gaps are identified, and future directions are outlined to promote more adaptive, control-oriented use of ESSs under high RES penetration. This review concludes that advanced ESS control strategies are essential to achieving stable frequency regulation in future low-inertia power systems dominated by renewable energy.
The situation is especially challenging for small island states, such as Saint Lucia, due to limited economic diversification, high dependence on imported oil for energy, and a geographic location prone to severe storms. As stewards of this island, it is our duty to adapt to these changing dynamics and seize opportunities they present.
