In Trinidad and Tobago, renewable energies are taking center stage in the country's energy transformation efforts. Energy Minister Stuart Young and Prime Minister Keith Rowley highlighted the significance of renewable energy at a local sector event. The government is gearing up for the launch of the country's first utility-scale solar project, the 92.2MW Brechin Castle plant by Lightsource. Plans are also underway to develop solar utility projects on non-utilized state land, with a focus on wind energy resources. Trinidad and Tobago recently joined the Global Offshore Wind Alliance to explore offshore wind opportunities. Energy Minister Young emphasized the importance of renewable energy initiatives in establishing a green hydrogen economy, mentioning pilot projects by National Energy and commercial projects by HDF Energy with NewGen Energy. Although oil and gas remain critical, the government recognizes the role of renewable energy in reducing the country's carbon footprint. The country's 68th ranking in the World Energy Council's 2023 Trilemma Index underlines the importance of balancing energy security, equity, and environmental sustainability in its energy systems.
