Grenlec voluntarily started its Customer Renewable Energy Interconnection Programme to expand renewable energy generation and provide opportunities for customers who want to install renewable energy systems.
Launched in 2007 and the first of its kind in the English-speaking Caribbean, the Customer Renewable Energy Interconnection Programme now includes 117 customer-owned renewable energy sites with an aggregate installed capacity of 1.23 MWp. READ MORE
Over the last decade, Grenlec has invested significantly in renewable energy installations and programmes to help reduce our dependence on fuel imports and stabilise electricity prices.
Grenlec contributes to advancing renewable energy; promoting energy efficiency; supporting education, sports, health and safety in the community; and assisting with disaster relief efforts.
The Government of Grenada’s press release last week incorrectly states that the Grenlec Community Partnership Initiative (GCPI) has been funded as a direct “pass through” charge to Grenadian consumers. This is totally false.
To set the record straight: the GCPI has not, and has never been, funded by Grenadian consumers through electricity rates. In fact, the GCPI has been solely funded by Grenlec shareholders who annually contributed more than 5% of the Company’s pre-tax profits to charitable community organizations. If the Company had not donated this money, it would have made no difference whatsoever to electricity rates.

Grenlec is strongly objecting to legislation proposed by the Government of Grenada requiring the Company to pay five percent (5%) of Grenlec’s pre-tax profits to a Government-controlled “Social Fund” controlled by the Minister and a Minister-appointed committee. If enacted, this new law will effectively eliminate the Grenlec Community Partnership Initiative (GCPI), which has invested more than $22 million in communities since 1994.
