Jan 28, 2013

ST. JOHN’S, Antigua, CMC – The Government of Antigua and Barbuda has successfully partnered with several international groups and countries through the regional Caribbean Renewable Energy Development Programme (CREDP) project in launching the first renewable energy project on the island.
The 6-kilowatt photovoltaic power system at the Nelsons Dockyard Shirley Heights Lookout was aided by the Organization of American States (OAS), the European Union, and the governments of the United States of America and Germany.
A report on Sunday said the project is expected to provide electrical power “to cover certain elements of the operations” at the Lookout, one of the island’s premier tourism entertainment centres.
