Abstract

The PWRLINKCAR (Power Link Caribbean) is a research project that has the aim of promoting the renewable energies in the Caribbean area. The use of a submarine cable is proposed for the union of the electric markets of Greater and Lesser Antilles. The goal of the project is to extend the renewable energies to the markets of the Caribbean Area by studying, designing, and modelling the interconnectivity of the markets. It is proposed the use of direct current in order to transmit the electricity energy power using HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) and HVAC (High Voltage Alternating Current) through submarine cables. Regulatory provisions of the different markets are considered. Energy stocks and electricity price reduction are benefits expected by implementing the power link proposed in this work. Moreover, the power link can include optical cable for promoting telecommunications possibilities in the Caribbean area.
