The electricity rates in the Federation of St. Christopher (St. Kitts) and Nevis are $0.26 per kilowatt-hour (kWh). This is lower than the Caribbean regional average of $0.33/kWh.
Yes, St. Kitts and Nevis has a National Energy Policy (NEP). The key provisions of this policy include connecting large-scale independent power providers and many distributed renewable energy systems to the electrical grid. Not all generation is made publically available; this chart provides known and referenceable data.
Reports indicate that in St. Kitts and Nevis, higher losses are largely attributable to nontechnical losses such as unmetered consumption, leading to losses that are higher than the U.S. Energy Information Administration's average transmission and distribution loss of 6%. By comparison, the U.S. Energy Information Administration reports an average transmission and distribution loss of 6%.
The standard voltage in Saint Kitts and Nevis is 230 V. You can use your electric appliances there if the standard voltage in your country is between 220-240 V. In the UK, Europe, Australia, and most of Asia and Africa, this is the case. Manufacturers take these small deviations into account.
This Act allows for the provision of the supply of electricity on the island of Nevis by a public supplier and details the regulations and process to obtain the supply of electricity. The Ordinance allows for the survey, exploration, drilling, productions and use of geothermal resources, in which entities may apply for a license.
