Climate-Smart Technologies
Author: Walter Leal Filho
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 364237753X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 622
Book Description
The book addresses the perceived need for a publication with looks at both, climate smart technologies and the integration of renewable energy and energy efficiency in mitigation and adaptation responses. Based on a set of papers submitted as part of the fifth on-line climate conference (CLIMATE 2012) and a major conference on renewable energy on island States held in Mauritius in 2012, the book provides a wealth of information on climate change strategies and the role of smart technologies. The book has been produced in the context of the project "Small Developing Island Renewable Energy Knowledge and Technology Transfer Network" (DIREKT), funded by the ACP Science and Technology Programme, an EU programme for cooperation between the European Union and the ACP region.

Caribbean Energy
Author: Arnold McIntyre
Publisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN: 1513560743
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 67
Book Description
High energy costs contribute to dampening Caribbean competitiveness and potential growth. This paper overviews power sector challenges and takes stock of national and regional strategies to address them. It presents recommendations to move the energy agenda forward based on analyses of macro-aspects of energy reform. These include: i) quantitative assessment of the impact of energy costs on growth and competitiveness; ii) evaluation of gains from implementing announced renewable energy and energy efficiency targets; and iii) analysis of the impact of energy investments on debt sustainability. The paper argues for a bigger role for the private sector in energy reform and discusses prerequisites for good public-private partnerships.

The Oil & Gas Year Trinidad and Tobago 2019
Author: The Energy Year
Publisher: The Oil & Gas Year Limited
ISBN: 1783021462
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
TOGY is pleased to present The Oil & Gas Year Trinidad and Tobago 2019, published in partnership with the Ministry of Energy and Energy Industries and the Energy Chamber of Trinidad and Tobago. The Oil & Gas Year Trinidad and Tobago 2019 analyses this changing landscape and the approaches the country can take to maintain its competitive edge in the mid-to-long term, including the development of NiQuan Energy’s GTL plant and the establishment of the island nation as a logistics and training hub for Guyana’s burgeoning oil and gas industry. This fifth edition covers efforts to resolve continued gas curtailments via cross-border deals and negotiations with Grenada, Venezuela and Guyana, as well as through renegotiated contracts between producers and the National Gas Company of Trinidad and Tobago, and new gas production from super-major BP and local player DeNovo Energy. The book also showcases the expansion of the main ports at Point Lisas and Galeota, NOC Petrotrin’s challenges and subsequent restructuring, and the domestic EPC landscape. With gas coming on line from the startup of new developments throughout 2018, gas production has begun to rise steadily back up to previous levels. More gas is expected to come from offshore areas, such as acreage currently being explored by BHP Group. Trinidad and Tobago is awaiting the March 2019 start of commercial production at Caribbean Gas Chemical’s complex, which will increase the country’s competitiveness against other methanol producers in the Western Hemisphere. However, slowed gas production and feedstock supplies could potentially see the island nation pushed out of its position as the world’s top methanol producer. The Caribbean energy landscape is also shifting, with countries such as Grenada, the Bahamas, Jamaica and, most notably, Guyana delving deeper into their own oil and gas activities, looking to offset production gaps resulting from the current instability of regional heavyweight Venezuela. Extensive in-depth analysis is supported by comprehensive maps, illustrations and graphs to create a market guide essential for players seeking to either expand their operations in or enter the Trinidadian market.

Handbook of Caribbean Economies
Author: Robert E. Looney
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429560125
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 513
Book Description
This volume aims to illustrate the uniqueness of the economies of the countries and territories of the Caribbean as well as the similarities they share with other regions. While most countries in the region share many of the characteristics of middle-income countries, theirs is a matter of extremes. Their generally small size suggests a fragility not found elsewhere. While much of the world is beginning to feel some effects of climate change, the Caribbean is ground zero. These factors suggest a difficult road ahead, but the chapters presented in this volume aim to help to spur the search for creative solutions to the region’s problems. The chapters, written by expert contributors, examine the Caribbean economies from several perspectives. Many break new ground in questioning past policy mindsets, while developing new approaches to many of the traditional constraints limiting growth in the region. The volume is organized in four sections. Part I examines commonalities, including issues surrounding small economies, tourism, climate change and energy security. Part II looks at obstacles to sustained progress, for example debt, natural disasters and crime. In Part III chapters consider the specific role of external influences, including the USA and the European Union, the People's Republic of China, as well as regional co-operation. The volume concludes in Part IV with country case studies intended to provide a sense of the diversity that runs through the region.

The Report: Trinidad & Tobago 2016
Author: Oxford Business Group
Publisher: Oxford Business Group
ISBN: 1910068624
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
In its March 2016 Economic Bulletin, the Central Bank of T & T stated that after negative growth of 1% in 2014, T & T's economy contracted by a further 2.1% in 2015, as per provisional data. Meanwhile, government revenue fell by 6.2% in FY 2014/15, with a 35% decline in energy collections outstripping increases in non-energy and capital receipts. Nonetheless, the recessionary environment is not without opportunity for the country's new leadership. As the Government of Keith Rowley, which assumed office in September 2015, works to bring government spending under control, policies aimed at economic diversification could be set to gain further traction. Moreover, given that T & T has a safety buffer in the form of strong foreign currency reserves and a sovereign wealth fund, there is a relatively room to manoeuvre.

Emerging Issues for Small Island Developing States
Author: United Nations Publications
Publisher: UN
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 74
Book Description
The 2012 UNEP Foresight Process on Emerging Global Environmental Issues primarily identified emerging environmental issues and possible solutions on a global scale and perspective. In 2013, UNEP carried out a similar exercise to identify priority emerging environmental issues that are of concern to the Small Island Developing States (SIDS). The social and economic emerging issues were also identified using the same set of criteria. At the core of the process was a SIDS Foresight Panel consisting of 11 SIDS experts (for the UNEP Panel) and 12 experts (for the UN DESA Panel) from the three SIDS regions, representing the global SIDS community and a wide range of disciplines. The process was designed to open the discussion on emerging environmental issues to a broad range of views both from the Foresight Panel and a wider community of relevant experts from across the globe. Through the Foresight Process, separate lists of 20 environmental and 15 socioeconomic emerging issues were identified and discussed in this report.
