has made strides by forming public-private partnerships to develop RE capacity. Current renewable energy projects a 8.5-MW geothermal plant in Nevis (West Indies Power, July 2011) and a 5.4MW wind farm on St. Kitts (Recharge, October 2011). 3.5.11 Energy Sector Regulatory Framework Analysis The institutional framework governing the energy sector, apart from SKELEC and NEVLEC, includes the Ministry of Public Works, Housing, Energy and Utilities which is responsible for the country’s energy portfolio. With support from CSEP, it recently began developing the Federal Energy Department. It is envisioned that the department will be in charge of gathering data, information, and expertise that can be used to provide technical assistance and make recommendations to the government about what actions (and their socio-economic and environmental implications) the government can pursue with respect to energy-related activities. Such activities include projects, pricing, energy policy, and drafting a sustainable energy program. Due to its recent launch, the department’s staff is limited and its proposed activities and role inside the ministry are to be confirmed. In Nevis, the Ministry of Communications, Utilities, Posts, Planning, Natural Resources and Environment in the Nevis Island Administration (NIA), which forms part of the government of St. Kitts and Nevis, shares the responsible for the energy portfolio. 3.5.12 Legal and Regulatory Framework Regarding the legal, regulatory, and policy framework, the Electricity Supply Act (2011) requires a license for the supply of electricity. The minister, in granting the license, could require that the plant is powered only by wind or photovoltaic power, and be used for self-generation on their own premises (Section 3(2)). Although a license granted by the minster can give exclusive rights to generate, transmit, and distribute electricity for any public or private purpose, Section 5 provides that such a license may not exceed 25 years in duration. The Act also provides, under Section 15(1), that the Public Utilities Commission, established under the Public Utilities Commission Act, “shall have the power to regulate and oversee generally the overall use and supply of electricity in Saint Christopher [St. Kitts].” The responsibilities of the PUC as provided under Section 15(2) are to: • Promote and encourage the effective and efficient development and administration of the electricity supply, having regard to the development well-being and security of the country; • Oversee the generation, distribution, supply, and sale of energy for public and private purposes; • Promote the interests of consumers of electricity supplied by persons licensed to supply electricity in terms of (i) the prices charged and other terms of supply; (ii) continuity of supply; and (iii) the quality of the electricity supply services provided; • Encourage the operation and development of a safe, efficient, and economic electricity sector in Saint Christopher [St. Kitts]; and • Ensure the security and efficiency of the supply of electricity in Saint Christopher [St. Kitts] through the conduct of an efficient long-term supply planning process with due regard for future potential generation sources such as renewable energy and wind energy. In Nevis, the Electricity Ordinance (1998) stipulates that the electric utility designated under the Electricity License, in this case NEVLEC, is the only entity entitled to transmit and distribute power in Nevis. Section 3(2)(a)(b) provides for self-generation without the need for a license. 70PDF Image | Energy Policy and Analysis Caribbean
