1. GEORGE’S, GRENADA – August 16th, 2024 – The Public Utilities Regulatory Commission (PURC) is thrilled to announce the launch of a new program for Small Scale Independent Power Producer (SSIPP). This latest call comes on the heels of the finalisation of the pilot program initiated in 2021 where nine (9) local individuals will receive their licenses to operate solar photovoltaic (PV) facilities, generating electricity for sale to GRENLEC.

 The PURC is optimistic that local investors will take the opportunity to develop solar PV facilities with fixed capacity sizes ranging from 30kW to 200kW resulting in a combined total of 5MW of renewable energy electricity being generated to the national grid. Interested investors are encouraged to contact the PURC’s office for more information or visit our website at Applications - Public Utilities Regulatory Commission Grenada (purc.gd)

 

The PURC’s responsibility as outlined in the Electricity Act of 2016 (as amended) includes the assessment and establishment of rates charged by a network licensee (Grenlec) to consumers and ensuring that these rates are fair and reasonable for consumers. Effective October 1st, 2023 an Interim Tariff was introduced and will remain in effect until a new Tariff has been finalized after assessments. A series of public informative sessions have been scheduled to facilitate a better understanding on the Interim Tariff, how it is calculated and how it affects your Grenlec bill
