Dear Editor,
The President in Guyana noted that energy imports are 30% of our GDP. With increases in prices it is feared that this can go up further. This is indeed cause for alarm as it will cause hardship to Guyanese. I was wondering with a little initiative from the leaders that perhaps a scheme could be set up where areas of land could be designated for wind farms (modern windmills) with investors buying the windmills and being allowed to sell to the national grid with a tax-free holiday. With time and foresight this may be part of the solution to energy costs in Guyana.
Yours faithfully,
P Rampersaud
