Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are now emerging as a cornerstone technology to address these challenges—helping Jamaica stabilize its grid, unlock more renewable energy, and reduce electricity costs for both consumers and businesses. The country's electricity cost can reach as high as $0.32 per kilowatt-hour, far above global averages.
Jamaica is committed to reducing its dependence on imported fossil fuels. The country's National Energy Policy sets an ambitious target: 50% of electricity from renewable sources by 2037. Energy storage plays a critical role in achieving this target. Key policy support includes:
By integrating battery storage with rooftop solar systems or hybrid microgrids, Jamaican companies can maximize renewable use while gaining financial savings and branding advantages. Beyond the city centers, many Jamaican communities live in remote or coastal areas with limited access to stable electricity.
There are huge opportunities for increasing the efficiency of electricity use in Jamaica, particularly using an Energy Services Company (ESCO) framework. ESCOs are Energy Services Companies who bundle a number of energy services to form an energy saving project.
Jamaica's energy grid comprises 789MW of capacity, 80 per cent of which is owned by the JPS. The utility purchases 168MW from independent power producers that are contracted to supply electricity to the national grid, JPS said last month in tender documents to suppliers.
In the case of Jamaica, energy sold per employee decreased from 1,984 MWh in 2004 to 1,919 MWh in 2005. However, by 2008 this figure had risen to 1,987, due partly to reduction in the number of persons employed.
