Belize Energy Sector Diagnostic PUC 31 portfolio. A similar consortium of Ministries, Ministry departments and laws preside over the LPG industry. See Annex 8 for listing. Like the petroleum industry there are legislative and policy omissions. These include, standards for tank and tank use94, product quality guidelines, technical and safety standards for providers and end users, competition policy and energy security (reserves) legislation. 3.4 Electricity Belize’s electricity market is liberalized and regulated. Under current regulations vertical integration is permitted but the regulator is mandated to encourage competition in the sector. Although there are meaningful attempts to encourage competition in generation, the distribution/transmission market is currently dominated by a single privately owned bundled supplier (BEL), who is required by law to provide transmission facilities to any generator capable of paying its fees. Distribution, Transmission and Supply Belize Electricity Limited (BEL) is Belize’s main commercial, transmitter, seller, supplier and distributor of electric current. It is a Limited Corporation owned by Fortis Incorporated of Canada (67%), Social Security Board (25%) and various small shareholders (8%). Current licensing agreement extends to 2015 and under the terms of the license, the Company has the right of first refusal on any subsequent license grant. BEL’s national grid currently serves the Northern districts, including the off shore community of San Pedro95, the Central and Western districts and a small portion of the South.96 There are small local grids in the most southern communities and the other populated off shore community of Caye Caulker. Under the Power IV project, due to be completed in 2005, the grid is being extended to interconnect the existing local grids in the south97 with the national grid. The grid transmission and sub-transmission systems consist of 115 kV, 34.5 kV and 22 kV lines, while the distribution system voltages range from 6.6 kV to 34.5 kV. Please refer to Annex 3 for a graphical representation of the grid and its interconnections. In 2002, BEL experienced five hundred and sixty seven (567) unplanned outages, due to various reasons, countrywide98. Of this, seventy-seven or 13.5% were attributable to the Mexican exporter either at generation or transmission. The average duration of outages throughout the year was roughly two hours. However, the duration spread is significant, starting with a lower limit of six minutes to an upper limit of twenty- one hours. Planned outages for repair and maintenance were calculated at two hundred and twenty six (226). Beside BEL’s local and national grids, there is a small local grid in the closed Mennonite community of Spanish Lookout in the central Cayo district, owned and 94 According to Mr. Perfecto Matus of BWEL, retailers are left to self-regulate and use their judgement regarding rust of the tank, regulator and nut wear and tear.

Upgrade scheduled for existing transmission line between La Democracia and Dangriga. 98 The three most popular reasons were CFE at 13.5%, HV (high voltage) conductor faults at 42.8% and pole issues at 12%.
