Jamaica’s energy problem needs urgent attention
Mar 28, 2013
KINGSTON, Jamaica - A FORMER head of the country's utilities regulation body has warned that Jamaica's energy problem now requires the same urgency as the lottery scam and has proposed a draft of measures he says can help to address the issue.
With stakeholders divided between the use of coal as against liquified natural gas (LNG), J. Paul Morgan, the man who led the Office of Utilities Regulation (OUR) until five years ago, says it is time the Government steps forward and present a very clear energy policy.
He said with general agreement between the Government and the OUR that fuel oil is not an option for power generation in Jamaica, the issue should be left up to the regulatory body with a clear policy direction.
