Hope Wind Farm 2022

 This project seems to be moving forward. As it is a ground-breaking project it seems that things will move slowly. According to a report by OilNOW:

"Guyana is now closer to launching its first major initiative in renewable energy. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently granted approval for construction of the US$45M Hope Wind Farm Project. This represents the first substantial utility-scale renewable energy initiative to be implemented in the new oil producing South American country.

According to project documents, the 25.2MW wind farm will generate over 80GWh per year, to be delivered to the Guyana Power and Light (GPL)’s grid according to the terms of a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) and Grid Interconnection Agreement. This wind energy therefore represents over 10% of GPL’s gross total electricity generation, enough to supply 7000 homes with power."

Another article appeared in the Guyana Chronicle. 

We look forward to GPL getting a PPA agreed.

Guyana and sea-level rise. Relocating Georgetown?

Sea levels are rising and much of the coast of Guyana, including the capital, Georgetown, is below sea level at high tide. 

Difficult decisions will have to be made which involve planning decades ahead.

How long do we invest in sea defenses which will eventually be abandoned? When do we start relocating the city and coastal communities inland? We need to start building the infrastructure!

A report in Newsroom addresses the issue.
