ROSEAU, Dominica, CMC – Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit has brushed aside critics of his administration’s geothermal energy plan insisting that it represents the best hope for attracting foreign investments and improving the socio-economic wellbeing of Dominicans. Addressing the inauguration of the Trafalgar/Shawford/Fond Canie over the weekend, Skerrit said that his administration remains convinced that the geothermal project would bring relief to electricity consumers and that it is unfortunate that critics are continuing to object to the project. “My God there is no way you can survive with the light bills you are paying in this country,” he said, noting that bills were as high as 800 dollars (One EC dollar = US$0.37 cents) and that it is vitally important for the government to examine ways of reducing the costs to citizens.
