Does Barbados use solar panels?
Solar panels are seen more and more frequently across Barbados. Similar to the ubiquitous solar water heater on Barbadian rooftops, the Government of Barbados is fully committed to the idea of renewable energy and solar PV, thereby preparing the country for even more substantial growth in this sector.
Should you buy a solar PV system in Barbados?
One of the biggest, if not the biggest hurdle to further solar PV penetration in Barbados is the upfront cost of a system. When you think about the fact that the cost is essentially the prepayment of 25-30 years worth of electricity it makes sense that the price is “high”. If you could purchase a Continue reading →
