Indian firm lands Caribbean geothermal project work

A contract has been awarded to build the power dispatch component for a 10MW geothermal project on the Caribbean island of Dominica.

The winner is Mumbai-based Kalpataru Projects International, according to information from Dominica Geothermal Development (DGD).

BNamericas previously reported that three companies submitted offers for substations Trafalgar (2.2/33kV), Padu (33/11kV), Fond Cole (69/33/11kV) and Laudat (11kV), and associated lines.

The contract price is US$39mn and the duration is 30 months. The call for the World Bank-financed work was issued in November.

Dominica aims to achieve 100% electricity generation from renewables by 2030, primarily based on existing hydro and new geothermal sources. 

Current generation capacity comprises 20.1MW diesel and 6.6MW hydro.
