In support of the Energy and Climate Partnership of the Americas,
the Organization of American States’ Department of Sustainable Development (OAS/DSD) with a grant from
the U.S. Department of State implemented a program (2010-2014) to facilitate
regional dialogue and assist Caribbean governments promote and implement
sustainable energy policies and programs. Through this program, short term legal
counsel and technical assistance was provided to support commercialization of
government endorsed energy projects consistent with ECPA’s focus areas of
renewable energy, energy efficiency, energy poverty, and infrastructure.
Furthermore, the program facilitated regional
dialogue on long-term sustainable energy solutions including supporting a dialogue on possible sub-sea
electrical interconnections that could address long-term Caribbean energy security challenges.
Goal of the Initiative
Promote sustainable energy policies and programs to assist
governments in the deployment of renewable energy technologies by providing short-term legal counsel
and technical assistance on clean energy projects and facilitate regional dialogue on long-term
sustainable energy solutions for the Caribbean.
Initiative Components
Regional Dialogue - Support regional dialogue among Caribbean energy ministers and
