Ministry of Energy and Mines (Dominican Republic)

The Ministry of Energy and Mining (Spanish: Ministerio de Energía y Minas) of the Dominican Republic is a government institution in charge of the responsible development of the country''s energy and mining sectors. Its main concern is to keep a reliable energy infrastructure and preserve an adequate exploitation of the country''s minerals.

Energy profile: Dominican Republic

The Dominican Republic produced 18.6 TWh of electricity in 2020; fossil fuels accounted for nearly 85% of production, followed by hydro (6.68%), wind (6.11%), solar (1.64%) and biofuels (0.90%). The DR has a high incidence of power outages compared to other countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. [3]

Energy Snapshot Dominican Republic This profile provides a snapshot of the energy landscape of the Dominican Republic, a Caribbean nation that shares the island of Hispaniola with Haiti to the west. In 2014, the Dominican Republic''s utility rates were approximately $0.19 per kilowatt-hour (kWh),1 below the regional average of $0.33/kWh.

Energas and AES break the Dominican Republic''s reliance on oil

The Dominican Republic is highly reliant on oil, and as energy partners committed to the country for decades, we came together through a new joint venture, Energía Natural Dominicana (EnaDom), to transform the country''s energy matrix with natural gas and secure a cleaner, reliable, and cost-effective future.

Construction starts on 99MWh battery unit in Dominican Republic

Construction has started on the first major solar-plus-storage project in the Dominican Republic, which features a 24.8MW/99MWh battery energy storage system (BESS). The Comisión Nacional De Energia (CNE) of the Dominican Republic announced the start of work on the Dominicana Azul solar project shortly in late December (22 December).

Dominican Republic Targeting 25% Renewable Energy By 2025

Dominican Republic''s Energy Minister Joel Santos (in the picture) sees a large share of solar energy in driving the country''s energy transition and diversification. Dominican Republic will soon publish an updated draft of the National Energy Plan 2022-2036 with a chapter devoted to renewable energies and their storage, according to CNE

Dominican Republic needs up to 400 MW of BESS by 2028,

The stakeholders estimated that by 2028, the Dominican Republic will need to deploy between 250 to 400 MW of energy storage systems. Their projection is based on the country''s current renewable energy market.
