The Caribbean island nation of the Bahamas is turning to independent power producers (IPPs), the combination of “solar plus storage” and hybrid microgrids to extend sustainable energy access, improve energy reliability and resiliency, and reduce carbon emissions and environmental footprints on four of the archipelagic nation's 30 inhabited islands (pop.
Development of the four solar-fueled power systems will set the stage to scale the Family Islands solar program across the island chain's outlying islands, as well as contribute to the Bahamas achieving a national goal of renewable energy resources meeting 30% of electricity needs by 2030.
The Bahamian government owns and manages property rooftops, parking lots and green spaces, on which solar power projects could be developed. Several projects that capitalize on that solar power potential are underway, Jones Bahamas points out.
BPL Chairman Donovan Moxey was quoted in a Tribune Business news report. The Bahamas is a very difficult place to generate electricity, distribute it and sell it, even as compared to other Caribbean islands, Chris Burgess, Islands Energy Program projects director, told Solar Magazine.
On a kilowatt-hour (kWh) by kilowatt-hour basis, solar's your best, but you need to add battery energy storage capacity in order to reach higher levels of penetration,” he noted. “Nassau's [the Bahamas' largest city] is a pretty big grid, and it can take a fair bit of solar without storage,” Burgess continued.
In addition to the Bahamas, the Islands Energy team is in the midst of assisting Caribbean island governments and utilities in five other jurisdictions craft and carry out clean, renewable energy transition: the British Virgin Islands (BVI), Belize, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines and Turks and Caicos. Three pillars support the program.
The Bahamas has been taking steps to end the state-owned utility's energy monopoly and reduce the energy sector's carbon and environmental footprints in line with national and international greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and climate change goals. Government leaders have earmarked $170 million for renewable energy financing in the 2019–2020 budget.
In this context, the EU-funded Air4NRG project aims to improve long-term energy storage. Specifically, it targets over 70 % round-trip efficiency, sustainability, and integration with the grid., contributions to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions) and adapting to climate change by building resilience (e., regarding floods, droughts, spatial planning and better governance.

[PDF Version]Further, Sudan's energy sector is currently subsidised by the government. Government subsidies to the sector totalled $667 million in 2019. This represents 13.5% of total government expenditures . Financial sustainability could be achieved by introducing gradual tariff adjustments.
As for Ethiopia, Sudan imports electricity at a price of 4.5 cents/kilowatt . In August 2021, the Minister of Energy and Petroleum declared that the Sudanese energy sector needed urgent maintenance and restructuring at a cost of $3 billion, another indicator of the dire financial needs of the sector .
The energy supply in Sudan is primarily derived from crude oil, hydroelectricity, biomass, and renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, and geothermal energy. As illustrated in Figure 2a, biomass is the largest contributor, accounting for 52% of Sudan's total energy consumption.
Encouraging solar and wind power in the country's energy portfolio could help Sudan achieve its goal of energy self-sufficiency. Egyptian policies such as nurturing and promoting renewable technologies and scientific research, feed-in tariffs, and tax exemptions could help Sudan achieve its objectives.
