The Dutch authorities says that the Netherlands Group for Utilized Scientific Analysis (TNO) is presently mapping the three islands of Curaçao, Aruba, and Sint Maarten to determine appropriate areas for wind and photo voltaic deployment.
The Dutch authorities has introduced that it’s going to develop the SDE++ incentive program for large-scale renewables within the abroad territories of Curaçao, Aruba, and Sint Maarten, It then expanded this system to the so-called Dutch Caribbean, which included the islands of Bonaire, Saba, and Sint Eustatius.
