Strengthening Energy Grid Stability to promote energy efficiency in the Caribbean

The following activities will support implementation of the project:(A1.1) Convening of stakeholder consultations in each country to obtain data and information on the state of existing grids and to also obtain recommendations on appropriate strategies for improving the stability and efficiency of the grids. The consultations would also facilitate discussions on grid improvements thereby allowing for sharing of information and building capacities in this area.(A1.2) Preparation of a grid stability assessment in each of the five countries that will present options and recommendations for modernization at the country level.(A1.3) Presentation of the draft assessments to each country to obtain feedback that would lead to their finalization.(A2.1) Utilising the results of the assessments, develop a training manual that would address the gaps in knowledge in grid stability especially to support disaster preparedness. (A2.2) Organisation of two subregional workshops that would utilize the training manual to build awareness and capacity of national experts in techniques for improving grid stability especially in times of disaster. (A3.1) Prepare promotional materials that would seek to inform the general populace in techniques that may be used at the domestic and corporate levels to improve grid stability including how it relates to adaptation and mitigation of the impacts of disasters. (A3.2) An external consultant will evaluate the impact of the project.
