Optimizing the sustainable energy transition: A case study on Trinidad

However, Trinidad and Tobago power generation capacity surpasses its current demand (Inter- American Development Bank, 2015), which provides avenues for energy storage through low carbon H 2, MeOH and NH 3 production

Trinidad and Tobago secures first GCF funding for carbon

The GCF Readiness project, approved in March 2024, aims to further Trinidad and Tobago''s CCS readiness, including assessing storage potential in deep saline formations and creating a national storage atlas. This effort is part of a

Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage (CCUS)

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) /CCUS can be applied to large point sources such as fossil fuel energy facilities like the natural gas-powered plants located in Trinidad. After capturing the CO2, it is then compressed and transported for geological storage.

5 FAQs about [Trinidad and Tobago advanced energy storage technologies]

Does Trinidad and Tobago have a power generation capacity?

However, Trinidad and Tobago power generation capacity surpasses its current demand ( Inter- American Development Bank, 2015 ), which provides avenues for energy storage through low carbon H 2, MeOH and NH 3 production directly within the local downstream supply chain.

Is Trinidad and Tobago an industrial Sid?

Trinidad and Tobago represents a unique case study as an industrial SID, whereby knowledge and guidance on multiple decision criteria can aid in reducing national carbon footprints.

Does Trinidad and Tobago produce electricity?

The authors greatly acknowledge the Trinidad and Tobago national electricity power produces for assisting in data collection and model verification. No funding sources were received for this study. Energ. J. ( 2018), 10.3390/en11061412

What makes Trinidad and Tobago unique?

Trinidad and Tobago is heavily dependent on its oil and gas reserves ( Fig. 3 ), petrochemical and other hydrocarbon related downstream industries ( Indar, 2019 ). Thus, the country is unique amongst SIDS and must maximise its benefit from these natural resources, in terms of energy production.
