2010-09-06 18:51:06 by
Harnessing the wind to generate electricity that will drive the wheels and engines of the economy was an exciting development of the Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis. That view was expressed by Organisation of American States (OAS) Representative for St. Kitts and Nevis Mr. Starret Greene at a ceremony to launch the official start of the WindWatt Wind Farm at Maddens Estate in Nevis.
He said Nevis? move toward renewable energy was the right thing to do in an era in which the development of alternative and cleaner forms of energy was the number one priority for developed and developing countries on every continent and in every region of the world.
Mr. Greene also pointed to the social and economic benefits of the energy generating project, among them the opportunity for job creation; the acquisition of new skills for this and future generation of workers and it would win support from the citizens in both St. Kitts and Nevis.
The initiatives include the OAS?s support for the preparation of a National Energy Policy already on the way, the investigation and sequent legal and policy support for the geothermal project on Nevis and the wind project that has benefited from critical technical and legal support through the expert advice and counsel of Mr. Cletus Springer, Mr. Mark Lambrides, Mr. John Armstrong and Mr. Kevin de Cuba.
