CARICOM Energy Unit Engages in CREF 2025 High Level Discussions

Jun 05, 2025

As the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) continues to advance its energy transition agenda, the Energy Programme of the Secretariat remains actively engaged in regional dialogue and collaboration.

Mrs. Sandra Britton, Programme Manager and Mr. Brian Constantine, Project Officer of the CARICOM Secretariat’s Energy Unit, participated in the 17th Caribbean Renewable Energy Forum (CREF), held in Miami, Florida, in May 2025. Their participation underscores CARICOM’s strategic focus on mobilising investments, accelerating the deployment of renewable energy technologies, and enhancing regional energy cooperation.

CREF is one of the largest annual forums that brings together regional and international leaders with a shared mission: to drive investment in clean, resilient, and self-sufficient energy grids throughout the Caribbean.

The Forum offered a valuable opportunity for engagement in high-level discussions on strengthening energy systems, unlocking sustainable financing mechanisms, and spotlighting cutting edge innovations. Its dynamic sessions and networking engagements helped to reinforce the urgency and ambition needed to scale up renewable energy adoption across CARICOM Member States
