The Caribbean nation of St. Kitts and Nevis is looking to sell its excess geothermal energy, and it is marketing the surplus power to the neighboring U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI).
Caribbean Net News reports that Carlisle Powell, minister of communications in the Nevis Island Administration, and Rawlinson Isaac, general manager of West Indies Power Ltd., made a presentation to the USVI Senate's Economic Development, Energy and Technology Committee that detailed a five-year plan to install underwater cables that will transport a supply of geothermal energy from Nevis to the USVI. Isaac stated that Nevis only uses about 9 MW of its geothermal power.
Powell and Isaac also stated their government was seeking to sell its excess geothermal energy to other Caribbean islands.
