Abstract

The national program for the development of the energy sector of Haiti seeks to enable policy makers and various stakeholders providing them with a management tool for the industry. The program covers the period 2007-2032. The conservation of natural resources (especially forests) from the point of view of energy management and environmental integrity will be considered through various measures such as: Support for more efficient use of fuel from wood and charcoal; the production of energy and other forest biomass resources; the conversion to diesel, bio-diesel and LPG of 1,000 small businesses that use wood as fuel; the promotion of renewable energies (wind and solar) by strengthening the institutional (and the privileged access of the poor to energy services); the promotion of bio-fuels through incentives for production of biomass energy and encouraging the acquisition of investments in equipment for the production and use of bio-fuels.
