In keeping with the push toward renewable energy, the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Secretariat is embarking on an energy project at its headquarters in Liliendaal, Greater Georgetown.
According to the online newsletter, Caricom Today, the 400 kW solar photovoltaic power generation system project is being funded through a US$17.8 million Grant Agreement between the governments of Japan and Guyana. The project which began in 2020, was suspended three months after work began due to the pandemic. Work restarted in mid-2021 and the project will be formally handed over early in 2022.
