Government officials and renewable energy developer VIElectron heralded the long-awaited interconnection between the Estate Petronella solar farm and the V.I. Water and Power Authority’s electric grid as a milestone in the U.S. Virgin Islands’ push to add reliability and sustainability to the territory’s power infrastructure during a ribbon-cutting in December. A second solar park in Estate Hogensborg was interconnected with WAPA that same month, and there are plans for solar developments on St. Thomas and, eventually, St. John.
