Solar energy appears to be the best option for increasing renewable electricity in St. Maarten, according to TNO, which studied the energy transition in Aruba, Curaçao, and St. Maarten.
but...
there are few concrete plans for the energy transition in St. Maarten
Source: Solar energy best option for St. Maarten, TNO concludes, but no clear plans in sight
So I understand this to mean that the lack of an energy transition plan goes beyond lack of financing to include a lack of government will and/or capacity to act in this area (after all they haven't managed to even keep the existing generating infrastructure reliable).
