Testimonials
"I find CAREC workshops to be very informative and provide a forum to strengthen collaboration between utility personnel across the Caribbean region. The trainings and workshops provided me with an opportunity to share lessons learned and best practices for the design, implementation, and operation of renewable energy systems with other CARILEC affiliate utilities that may be in early stages of implementing renewable energy strategies. CAREC’s network of members continues to grow and has provided me with valuable relationships I can call on whenever faced with a new challenge.”
The Regulatory Roundtable workshop provides an important avenue to gather information and to understand the challenges, the opportunities, and the wins and the losses that confront the constituients that make up the energy space in the Caribbean, and as such, having a safe space where there will be open discussion amongst the key stakeholders, the utilities, the regulators is important to gather a clear understanding of what those challenges are.
Meaningful collaboration is required for the region to successfully navigate this energy transition, in which we (Caribbean utilities) are in different stages of the process. The CAREC Storage Workshop is an excelllent initiative which facilitates and encourages knowledge sharing amongst stakeholders across our region. I was fortunate to attend the 2023 CAREC workshop where novices, experts, and those in-betweeen, shared their collective experiences, builiding professional networks to "Grow Together" as a region. Special Thanks to the CAREC Team for bringing us together
