The OAS is assisting the Caribbean region to accelerate the deployment of commercially available renewable energy and energy efficient technologies. This demonstration project was initiated by the ECPA Caribbean Initiative financed by the U.S. Department of State and the Caribbean Sustainable Energy Project (CSEP) program financed by the European Union.

Given the success of the pilot project in showcasing the applicability of solar PV systems and the reduction of electricity consumption within the public sector, the formal inauguration of this project will spotlight the efforts of the OAS through the ECPA Caribbean Initiative and CSEP and A&B Energy Desk in this endeavor.
