Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago – June 2, 2025 – Renewable Power Caribbean Limited (RPC), a leading innovator in sustainable energy solutions across the region attended Day 1 of the highly anticipated Energy Chamber Sustainability Energy Conference 2025. Held at the Hilton Trinidad and Conference Centre, the conference, themed "Adapting and Recalibrating," commenced with a powerful opening day that underscored the Caribbean's unwavering commitment to a clean energy future amidst evolving global dynamics.

The day’s proceedings set a clear tone, emphasizing the critical need for regional adaptation and strategic recalibration of energy policies and programs. The Chairperson's address, delivered by Ms. Mala Baliraj, highlighted the region's strong interest in developing clean energies, even as larger economies adjust their sustainable energy focus. She spotlighted the ambitious targets set by various Caribbean nations: Barbados's goal of 100% renewable energy and carbon neutrality by 2030, Dominica's pioneering efforts in geothermal energy, and Jamaica's leadership in wind, solar, and natural gas adoption for power generation. Ms. Baliraj also acknowledged Trinidad and Tobago's significant stride with its first grid-scale solar project, the Brechin Castle solar farm, set to come online this year – a monumental step for the region.

Throughout Day 1, discussions revolved around several pivotal themes directly relevant to RPC's mission of accelerating the Caribbean's transition to a greener, cleaner future:

• Global Energy Investment Shifts: Panels examined the implications of global trends on investment flows into sustainable energy projects in the Caribbean. The consensus underscored the need for the region to attract and leverage this capital effectively, ensuring that policy frameworks are conducive to large-scale renewable energy development.

• Decarbonization of "Hard to Abate" Sectors: A significant focus was placed on strategies for reducing emissions in sectors traditionally difficult to decarbonize. This included innovative approaches and technologies that can be applied to industrial processes, aligning with the broader regional objective of a lower carbon footprint.

• Increasing Energy Efficiency and Wind Energy Potential: Sessions highlighted the ongoing importance of energy efficiency initiatives across all sectors, from industrial operations to commercial and residential properties. Furthermore, the burgeoning potential of wind energy, particularly offshore wind, was a key discussion point, with insights into leveraging existing expertise from the oil and gas sector for new renewable ventures.

For Renewable Power Caribbean Limited, Day 1 provided invaluable insights and reaffirmed the urgency of our work. The emphasis on increasing renewable energy capacity, reducing carbon footprints, and promoting environmental stewardship deeply resonates with our core values and the comprehensive suite of solar PV, wind energy, and agrivoltaics systems we offer. We are particularly encouraged by the regional commitment to bold renewable targets and the discussions on creating an enabling environment for clean energy investments.

As the conference continues, Renewable Power Caribbean Limited looks forward to engaging further with industry leaders, policymakers, and stakeholders to collectively adapt and recalibrate our strategies, ensuring a more sustainable and resilient energy landscape for the entire Caribbean.

Renewable Power Caribbean Limited Shares Key Takeaways from Day 2 of the Energy Chamber Sustainability Energy Conference 2025

Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago – June 3, 2025 – Renewable Power Caribbean Limited (RPC) continued our active participation in the Energy Chamber Sustainability Energy Conference 2025, with Day 2 proving to be another insightful and action-oriented session. Building on the foundational discussions of Day 1, the second day of the conference, under the theme "Adapting and Recalibrating," delved deeper into specific pathways for accelerating the Caribbean's clean energy transition.

Day 2 commenced with a strong focus on the Decarbonization of "Hard to Abate" Sectors in the Caribbean. This critical session explored the unique challenges and opportunities faced by industries such as manufacturing and petrochemicals in reducing their emissions. Discussions highlighted various approaches, including technological advancements, policy interventions, and behavioral changes, all aimed at fostering a more sustainable industrial landscape. The implications for exports and opportunities for financing these decarbonization efforts were also thoroughly examined, providing a comprehensive outlook on how these sectors can align with global lower-carbon demands.

A particularly engaging new feature of the conference on Day 2 was the Innovation & Technology Working Session. Led by representatives from the University of the West Indies, this session guided delegates through a tabletop exercise, prompting collaborative thinking on the innovations and research essential for driving the energy transition in the years to come. This interactive approach underscored the vital role of academic and research institutions in developing practical solutions for the region's energy future.

The afternoon sessions on Day 2 shifted focus to Increasing Efficiency and Reducing Consumption of Energy. This segment was crucial, exploring diverse strategies for enhancing energy efficiency and reducing overall energy consumption across all sectors. Presenters from across the region discussed pathways to significantly decrease energy usage at the domestic level, emphasizing its importance in mitigating climate change and promoting sustainable development.

Concluding the formal presentations, the session "Does Wind Power Have a Future in the Caribbean?" captivated the audience. This discussion explored the significant potential of wind power as a contributor to the Caribbean's future energy mix. Insights were shared on how other countries view the development of wind energy, providing valuable perspectives for regional implementation and investment.

For Renewable Power Caribbean Limited, Day 2 further solidified our understanding of the evolving energy landscape and the pressing need for integrated solutions. The emphasis on decarbonizing heavy industries, fostering innovation through collaboration with academia, and driving widespread energy efficiency directly aligns with RPC’s commitment to providing comprehensive sustainable energy solutions, including solar PV and wind energy systems. We are particularly enthused by the proactive discussions around leveraging technology and encouraging cross-sector collaboration to achieve the region's ambitious clean energy goals.

Renewable Power Caribbean Limited remains dedicated to playing a pivotal role in charting a sustainable and resilient energy future for the Caribbean. We eagerly anticipate the final day of the conference and the continued exchange of ideas.
