The 2015 electricity rates in Turks and Caicos are $0.29 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), slightly below the Caribbean regional average of $0.33/kWh. Like many island nations, Turks and Caicos is almost 100% reliant on imported fossil fuel, leaving it vulnerable to global oil price fluctuations that have a direct impact on the cost of electricity.
Turks and Caicos has few policies related to energy eficiency and renewable energy. Historically, the territory has not implemented policy mechanisms to aid in the development of clean and energy-eficient technologies.
Once wave and ocean thermal technologies are proven in the marketplace, ocean energy and ocean thermal energy conver- sion have potential as well. Abundant wind and solar resources, as well as the potential for other renewable sources could help Turks and Caicos meet or exceed its peak demand of 34.7 MW.
Four main entities are responsible for governing the elec- tricity sector in Turks and Caicos. The governor grants and revokes licenses, regulates the level and structure of tariffs that electric companies can charge for various customer groups, and approves changes to these regulations.
