The project highlights the critical role of partnership in advancing renewable energy solutions and underscores the commitment of both the public and private sectors to bolstering Jamaica’s energy resilience and sustainability. Its implementation, which will provide valuable experience-in-use to researchers at UWI, not only underscores commitment from LASCO and UWI to advancing solar technology but also provides a platform for critical research into commercial-scale batteries for distributive generation.
"We are happy to be celebrating the completion of this pilot project, which marks a significant milestone for the resilience of Jamaica''s energy sector. UWI has been able to provide technical expertise, guidance, and training towards improving Jamaica''s energy sector resilience. With the completion of this solar storage project, we look forward to supporting the next generation of researchers in reaping the benefits of this system and embracing a growing market for renewable energy development."
The UWI/LASCO Solar Pilot Project represents a significant milestone in Jamaica’s journey towards energy independence and is a testament to collaborative efforts towards a green, resilient energy future.
With a total project cost of USD $1.9 million, jointly invested by USAID and LASCO, the UWI/LASCO Solar Pilot Project is poised to deliver substantial cost savings while advancing Jamaica’s renewable energy goals. The project’s success underscores the transformative potential of public-private partnerships in driving sustainable development. As Jamaica continues its transition towards a cleaner, more resilient energy future, initiatives like the UWI/LASCO Solar Pilot Project serve as a beacon of hope and progress for our nation.
The UWI/LASCO Solar Pilot Project was developed under the Strengthening Energy Sector Resilience in Jamaica project, a 3.5-year joint effort of USAID and JERA. As the lead implementer of JERA, Cadmus Vice President Christina Becker-Birck highlighted that the significance of this programme "goes well beyond the region" and that LASCO is "setting an example for Jamaica and the region through this pilot." It was conceived by the University of the West Indies (UWI) and executed by LASCO with technical support from UWI Mona, Cadmus, and all JERA members.
