by the Government of Antigua and Barbuda, several renewable energy technologies have been analysed. The current power system of the country is widely dominated by conventional fossil fuel generation. Hence, multiple renewable energy options were explored. These include utility-scale solar photovoltaics (PV), distributed solar PV
This is the Energy Report Card (ERC) for 2022 for Antigua and Barbuda. The ERC provides an overview of the energy sector performance, highlighting the following areas: • Installed Conventional and Renewable Power Generation Capacity
Five specific scenarios have been analysed, together with multiple renewable energy options including utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV), distributed solar PV, utility-scale wind and green hydrogen. Meanwhile, electric vehicles (EVs) are considered for achieving a 100% renewable transport sector by 2040.
One of the most promising renewable energy sources for Antigua and Barbuda is solar power. The islands receive an average of eight hours of sunlight per day, making them an ideal location for solar energy generation.
Renewable energy Antigua, a welcomed addition to the APUA grid. Cleaner, greener energy is now an option for any electricity customer. APUA''s Interconnection Policy refers to the technical and practical aspects of connecting a renewable generating source to the utility grid/network.

Most Small Island Developing States (SIDS) rely heavily on conventional fossil fuels for electricity generation and transport; however, renewables have the potential to deliver quick returns, decrease costs, create jobs and improve the local economy for many of these island states.
During the revision process for its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement, the Government of Antigua and Barbuda proposed a target of achieving 100% of its energy generation from renewable energy sources by 2030. This renewable energy roadmap for Antigua and Barbuda has subsequently been developed by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) at the request of the Ministry of Health, Wellness and the Environment.
The Roadmap charts a path for the Government of Antigua and Barbuda, providing options for achieving a 100% renewable energy share in both the power and transport sectors by 2030 and 2040, respectively. Five specific scenarios have been analysed, together with multiple renewable energy options including utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV), distributed solar PV, utility-scale wind and green hydrogen. Meanwhile, electric vehicles (EVs) are considered for achieving a 100% renewable transport sector by 2040.
The Roadmap also outlines various policy recommendations that will be crucial for the implementation of these scenarios, charting a path for Antigua and Barbuda to transition from a power system dominated by fossil fuels toward one with a higher share of renewable energy.
Customers who have systems in excess of 5KW will be governed under the ''Buy all, sell all'' net billing system. The Customer pays the Utility, at the published tariff rate, for all of the power consumed. The energy produced by the renewable energy system is then credited to the customer at the avoided fuel cost.
The roadmap study consisted of analysing the deployment of renewable energy options for Antigua and Barbuda in the following two sectors/applications: 1.Electricity generation 2.Road transportThe following sections describe the details of both applications including the various options considered for each sector to achieve the 100% renewable energy target.
