What makes Montserrat a more prudent choice?

Chairman of the task force and Director of Energy for the Government of Montserrat, Kenrick Burke said, “We believe that a more prudent choice for Montserrat is an aggressive and multi-faceted strategy of diversification and development of the most feasible indigenous energy resources.”

Does Montserrat need a geothermal plant?

To go beyond this, Montserrat is developing plans to ensure the electricity system can operate reliably. The target of 100% was based on information provided from the 2010 geothermal study4, and an Early Market Engagement exercise in 2017 to procure a 2.5-5MW geothermal plant which would satisfy 100% of the Montserrat energy requirement.

Can Montserrat become a net energy exporter?

According to the Energy Task Force Report, “Montserrat has the potential to emerge as a net energy exporter through the aggressive development of its geothermal resources.” A significant barrier highlighted in the 129-page document, is the lack of financing for project implementation.
