The Cayman Islands’ two-year Residential and Public Sector Buildings Energy Efficiency Programme celebrated the successful conclusion of its project on Thursday morning.
The event, held at George Town Yacht Club, brought together project staff, homeowners, contractors and civil servants who have participated in the project. Led by the Ministry of Sustainability & Climate Resiliency and Wellness (MSCRW) with support from the RESEMBID Programme, the European Union and Expertise France, the programme was initiated to address multiple challenges facing the community, including high energy costs and the need for sustainable environmental practices.
The project tackled energy efficiency and consumption in both residential (National Housing Development Trust homes) and public sector buildings and recorded demonstrable success in both sectors.
In 2022, the Ministry was awarded a grant of €1.2m for the Cayman Islands Government Energy Efficiency Programme.
