Jamaica has an ambitious target of 20 per cent renewable and 42 per cent natural gas by 2030. And the target continues to be revised upwards to 50 per cent renewables by 2037. For these objectives to be realised, Jamaica needs to see major investments from the renewable sector.

Solar Energy in Jamaica

Photovoltaic power systems are generally differentiated based on their operation and connection to other sources like batteries or utility grids. Standalone PV systems. The simplest PV systems involve connecting the Solar panels or arrays directly to the DC load (such as DC lights, fans, motor pumps, or batteries).

NWC adding more solar to power water network

2 天之前· The water utility received planning approval from the National Environment and Planning Agency, NEPA, in November to install a solar photovoltaic system at Leaders Avenue in Montego Bay. The NWC expects to spend $11.8 billion on its light and telephone bills this fiscal year, up from $10 billion a year earlier, according to the Jamaica Public

Solar power in Jamaica

Jamaica''s solar potential. Jamaica''s electricity sector is dominated by non-renewable generators that use petroleum products, primarily Bunker C fuel oil and automotive diesel which generated 93% of the annual output for 2014.

Feasibility Study of Integrating a 120MW Photovoltaic Power

Utility scale photovoltaic (PV) power plants are generally feasible in geographic areas exposed to greater than 3 kWh/m2/day of sun irradiance. Jamaica is suited to capitalise on this natural resource, with a reported solar exposure yield of 5–7 kWh/m2/day and available lands for the development of a utility-scale PV system to supply the island

JPS to develop three renewable energy plants

It has put out tenders seeking engineering and construction proposals for three plants: a 115 MW solar PV plant; a 171.5 MW BESS, or battery energy storage system; and a 12 MW onshore wind plant – totalling 298.5 MW of new capacity. By December 2024, the JPS will choose an engineering firm to build the plants.
