CROSQ Energy Information Portal
Since the energy crisis of the last decade, energy costs, usage, and efficiency have become watch words in the Caribbean Region. Several projects have been undertaken examining this thing called energy and how to use it more effectively, and moreover, how to utilise the renewables in the energy sector that have not been previously tapped into and exploited to their fullest.
Why It Matters?
Do you use Air Conditioners, LED Bulbs, Refrigerators, or other electronic devices?
Every year most Caribbean governments spend millions on oil imports – about 70% of which goes towards some form of energy/electricity provision. Being efficient and saving money on electricity means those funds can be invested elsewhere in your local economy. So make the right choice when you shop for electrical items. Every little bit helps!
