The Electricity Strategy for Guernsey covers the period up to 2050. The Committee for the Environment & Infrastructure considered several different ways in which Guernsey could meet its future demand including solar, wind, tidal, additional interconnectors, energy storage and alternative fuels.
Guernsey Electricity Limited, in accordance with section 23 (2) (b) of the Electricity (Guernsey) Law 2001, hereby gives notice that the maximum resale price at which electricity can be resold is 25 pence per unit.
In Guernsey, we currently rely on fossil-fuel based systems of energy production and consumption and operate a thermal power station. However, it is recognised that as part of the response to climate change, there is a need to transition to an energy mix with limited, if not zero carbon emissions. This is often referred to as the energy transition.
It was proposed that Guernsey Electricity would continue to supply all islanders (both domestic and commercial) with electricity through the network, but that competition be introduced in all other sectors of the market meaning the way in which electricity is sourced to meet customers demands would change.
It is essential that Guernsey can manage its own transition to a green economy effectively and so a strategic direction must be set, along with a market structure that supports this, and provide certainty to the energy industry. The Electricity Strategy was approved by the States of Deliberation in September 2023. What was proposed?
Greater energy independence - A system where a greater and significant proportion of our community's energy needs are supplied through local energy sources. This will increase resilience by reducing exposure to external and geopolitical factors. The Committee for the Environment & Infrastructure is developing an Electricity Strategy for Guernsey.
