Guyana renewable energy provider
Economic development in Guyana’s outlying regions is stymied by a lack of reliable electricity. These areas often have small populations, however their locations and/or natural resources make them attractive sites for investment. GPL loses approximately 26 percent of the power it generates due to inefficiencies in the power. . A key project for the GoG is the development of the 165 MW Amalia Falls hydropower project which is located in the interior of the country. Originally, the project was awarded to the China Railway Group Limited in January. . The GoG seeks to increase energy efficiency across the economy and spur private sector investment by offering incentives like an. . Guyana has tax concessions and capital write-offs available for wind and solar farm investments. While Guyana’s geographic location makes offshore wind a viable alternative, current regulatory hurdles are likely to stymie investment. . Guyana’s electricity transmission lines and power grid are in a severe state of disrepair and need to be modernized. GPL loses approximately 26 percent of its power through inefficiencies in the grid. The GoG is drafting. [pdf]
