It is my pleasure to address today’s Conference on energy sustainability and energy security for the Caribbean in the face of a global transition to a low carbon footprint. The Theme for the Conference “Collaboration for Action” is topical and has been recognized by the Energy Chamber through continuous discussions around the margins on this matter. In fact, this government has led this conversation regionally. In these discussions there is general agreement on what we need to achieve and the direction that we must pursue. Individually, countries have been pursing their own plans of action but what is required is a more cohesive action plan for the Caribbean. We will always be stronger together which is necessary for a successful and just energy transition.
