6 FAQs about [Saint Lucia solar energy distribution]
What is the energy potential of Saint Lucia?
Saint Lucia is a volcanic windward island, with large tech- nical potential for geothermal, wind, and solar renewable energy generation, as well as use of solid waste generated by residents. Little technical potential for biomass or hydroelec- tric generation exists on the island.
How much does electricity cost in Saint Lucia?
The 2015 electricity rates in Saint Lucia are $0.34 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), in line with the Caribbean regional average of $0.33/kWh. Like many island nations, Saint Lucia is almost 100% reliant on imported fossil fuels for electricity generation, leaving it vulnerable to global oil price fluctuations that directly impact the cost of electricity.
How many employees does St Lucia Electricity Services Limited have?
St. Lucia Electricity Services Limited employs approximately two hundred and forty-three (243) persons. It serves a customer base of nearly 60 000, consisting of residential, commercial, and industrial customers. The company is committed to recruiting, training, and retaining a talented staff force.

How much geothermal potential does Saint Lucia have?
The volcano that sits in the middle of Saint Lucia provides vast geothermal potential. Conservative estimates indicate more than 30 MW of technical geothermal potential; others estimate 170 MW. Estimates also show that development of this geothermal resource would likely be economically feasible.
Can a biomass plant be built in Saint Lucia?
A biomass plant requires large tracts of agricultural land and is not economically feasible. Rivers and waterfalls on Saint Lucia do not have a base flow rate sufficient to power water turbines. The most promising hydroelectric spot is the Roseau Reservoir, which can supply 150 kilowatts (kW).
