What types of energy systems are covered in Cuba?
Coverage includes generation and storage systems, renewable energy installations (hydropower, solar PV, wind, biomass, ocean, and solar thermal), electrical grid history and characteristics, and an analysis of Cuba’s electrical energy resiliency.
How can Cuba build a more resilient energy system?
Building a Cleaner, More Resilient Energy System in Cuba recommends numerous ways by which domestic policy in Cuba can prioritize working towards a more sustainable, resilient grid — especially by investing in the energy transition — and ways in which international cooperation can support these goals.
Is Cuba's energy infrastructure in a precarious state of aging and disrepair?
The report highlights the issue that not only is Cuba’s energy infrastructure in a precarious state of aging and disrepair, but also that its entire energy system relies heavily on external aid and imported fossil fuels.
Is Cuba facing a severe economic crisis?
Compounding these problems, Cuba is facing a severe economic crisis, with rising inflation, decreased exports, and the introduction of austerity measures. Overcoming these energy challenges amidst the economic crisis will be extremely difficult.
What does the EDF report tell us about Cuba's electric grid?
The report builds on a previous report published by EDF in . That report, similar to this one, provided information on Cuba’s electric grid and recommended paths forward.
