The objective of this policy is to allow consumers of electricity who are customers of DOMLEC to be able to supply some or all their energy needs through the use of renewable energy while
It''s energy production is today largely dependent on fossil fuels. The Government of Dominica has decided to shift its energy mix, with the target of reaching 100% of its energy produced from renewable sources by 2030. To do so, a solar PV plant is intended to be commissioned, as well as a geothermal power plant. In anticipation of these
- The project demonstrates how energy storage supports grid stability during severe storm conditions. During 2017''s Hurricane Irma, the Andres system remained online and operational, maintaining the target frequency and supporting grid resiliency while almost 40 percent of the island''s total generation assets were forced offline.

This paper employs a multi-level perspective approach to examine the development of policy frameworks around energy storage technologies. The paper focuses on the emerging encounter between existing social, technological, regulatory, and institutional regimes in electricity systems in Canada, the United States, and the European Union, and the niche level
A 5-megawatt/2.5 megawatt-hours battery energy storage system is slated to provide the Commonwealth of Dominica the necessary reserve power from existing sources of renewable energy in the island in times of calamities and emergencies.
The objective of this policy is to allow consumers of electricity who are customers of DOMLEC to be able to supply some or all their energy needs through the use of renewable energy while connected to the grid.
energy development in Dominica. Few policies currently support renewable energy development, but none inhibit them. Difficulties associated with acquiring adequate land for wind and solar projects, and challenges related to Dominica''s geographical, topographical, and transportation issues, do create some obstacles.

This “Interconnection Policy” describes the process and requirements of Dominica Electricity Services Limited (DOMLEC) for any Customer who desire to connect a Distributed Generating (DG) Facility through the customer interface (meter) to DOMLEC’s Distribution System.
The electricity rates in Dominica, as of 2015, were $0.39 per kilowatt-hour (kWh)\. This is higher than the Caribbean regional average of $0.33/kWh.
Despite having three hydroelectric plants on the Roseau River that produce 27.4% of Dominica’s electricity supply in the present day, Dominica is not heavily reliant on imported fossil fuels as other islands in the region. In the 1960s, hydropower supplied 90% of Dominica’s electricity.
Dominica has a high solar potential with a solar resource of 5.6 kWh per square meter per day. The government has installed LED streetlights (in 2013 and 2014). Dominica also has approximately 30 MW of wind power potential, some of which is under development.
In the past, hydropower supplied 90% of Dominica’s electricity. However, as population and electricity demand grew, diesel generator use increased and hydropower share diminished. Dominica Electricity Services Limited (DOMLEC) is the sole electric utility with an installed electrical generating capacity of 23.8 megawatts (MW) and a peak demand of 17.2 MW.
