SOLAR FIELDS IN DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

Well its about time. We have spoken in support of renewable energy for DR as well as our own development for some time now, and for all the right reasons. The island uses mainly fossil fuel to create energy all over the island. The cost per kilowatt is very high be comparison to North America. The DR government has made a big effort bring in outside partners and funding to begin the process of adding alternative solar and wind farms to the island. In the Dominican today they have announced an new 58 Megawatt solar park to start in Medina. Every bit of this helps. The DR has the largest economy and fastest growing in the Caribbean. Supporting alternative sustainable energy on an island that has an strong supply of wind and sun, makes perfect sense for all concerned. This aspect will only continue to grow. We announced a few weeks ago that a 100MW wind farm was announced on the far north coast. Another good measure for the islands infrastructure.
