Message From Hon. V. (Nazim) Burke M.P. Minister of Finance, Planning, Economy, Energy and Cooperatives MINISTER FOR FINANCE, PLANNING, ECONOMY, ENERGY & COOPERATIVES AT THE TIME OF THE ADOPTION OF THIS VITAL ENERGY POLICY, GRENADA imports almost 100% of the fuel used for transport (diesel and gasoline), electricity generation (diesel) and cooking (liquefied petroleum gas – LPG). In the summer of 2008, the global price of oil peaked at US$147/bbl. The variable fuel charge on consumers’ electricity bill soared, pushing the cost of electricity to domestic and commercial consumers to over US$0.35/kWh and the retail price of gasoline to over US$1.50/litre. Prices dipped after the summer of 2008 but three years later the price of oil has returned to and seems destined to stay above US$100/bbl. Our future economic growth and development are constrained by the high costs of energy inputs. Manufacturers, hoteliers, taxi drivers, fisher folk, farmers and the ordinary consumer are all impacted by high energy costs. As Grenadians seek to improve their quality of life, our demand for electricity and modern energy services isincreasingatarateof3-4%perannum. However,continuedrelianceonimported sources of primary energy (fossil fuels) that are finite and when combusted are significant contributors to climate change is no longer defensible. In August 2008, there was a change in the administration of the Government of Grenada. The drafting of a sustainable energy policy, owned by all Grenadians, became an immediate priority. Over the next two years, our Ministry held extensive consultations with many stakeholders, both local and external, and expert advice was obtained through the kind assistance of the Organisation of the American States (OAS). Our tri-island state although small, in terms of landmass, is blessed with abundant sources of renewable energy – solar, wind and potentially geothermal. Our maritime area may contain significant quantities of hydrocarbons. By 2030, we have the potential to be almost 100% “green” in meeting our domestic demand for energy whilst investing the revenue gained from exploiting our potential offshore petroleum reserves. This policy document has a 20-year vision and is accompanied by an ambitious but achievable 10-year action plan with identified projects, some of which have already started (e.g. the public sector energy conservation programme, the “Energy for the Poor” programme, the wind energy project in Carriacou and the Mt. St. Catherine geothermal project). Our Ministry is committed to providing the required institutional capacity, legislative and fiscal framework to facilitate the implementation of this policy and action plan. The energy policy presented in this document is country-driven and reflects the special challenges faced by and opportunities available to a small island state that is striving to transition to a secure and sustainable low carbon development path. I commend it to all Grenadians. Hon. V. (Nazim) Burke. Minister of Finance, Planning, Economy, Energy and Cooperatives THE NATIONAL ENERGY POLICY OF GRENADA
