In 1994, it divested from its generation holdings on the larger island of Trinidad and now purchases energy from three Independent Power Producers (IPPs): the Power Generation Company of Trinidad and Tobago, which purchased the former T&TEC-operated plants and presently controls 1,386 megawatts (MW) of gas-fired capacity across
Unlike many island nations, Trinidad and Tobago has significant oil and natural gas reserves and is a net exporter of these fuels. However, subsidies for domestic energy consumption have created a fiscal burden on the government that could be reduced through the expansion of alternative transportation fuels, energy eficiency, and renewable energy.
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.
