This report analyzes in detail the potential contribution to the island tourism sector of four renewable energy technologies (RETs):
- Solar water heating (SWH) systems use solar heat to warm up domestic water, usually replacing electric water heaters.
- Solar air conditioning (SAC) systems use solar heat to provide cooling and heating, usually replacing traditional electric chillers.
- Sea water air conditioning (SWAC) systems use cold water from the ocean depths to provide air conditioning in hotel rooms and facilities, usually replacing traditional electric chillers.
- Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems produce electricity from the sun, usually replacing diesel generated electricity, either purchased from the local power grid, or self-produced with private diesel generators
