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. The Generation Procurement Entity (GPE) has launched the largest mandatory renewable energy plus battery storage tender in the English-speaking Caribbean — 300 MW of new renewable generation capacity paired with 150 MW of battery energy storage systems (BESS), bringing total new renewable additions. The Jamaican Government has been actively pursuing strategies to reduce the country's dependence on imported fuel and to enhance energy security, by diversifying its energy sources and investing in renewable energy. This was announced by Minister of Energy, Transport.

As of 2025, Ecuador's electricity consumption profile demonstrates a robust emphasis on low-carbon energy sources, with more than three-quarters of its electricity sourced from these cleaner options. Hydropower dominates this category, accounting for more than 70% of the nation's. During a prolonged dry season in 2024, Ecuador's over-reliance on hydropower (78 percent of total generation) resulted in daily blackouts of up to 14 hours, hurting economic activity. In 2024. Ecuador's government unveiled its 2025-2030 electric power expansion plan, committing $2. 43 billion across 23 projects to add 1,471 MW of new renewable energy capacity — the largest power infrastructure investment in the country's history. 43 billion renewable energy expansion plan targeting 1,471 MW of new generating capacity, with solar photovoltaic projects dominating at 963 MW (65%) of the total. The plan responds directly to the power crisis of 2024-2025, when drought-reduced hydroelectric.
