Screaming Power and The Carbon Zero Institute of Trinidad and Tobago (CZITT) Forge Strategic Partnership for UEnergyHub Caribbean

Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago – In a groundbreaking move toward sustainable energy solutions, CZITT and Screaming Power have joined forces to establish the UEnergyHub Caribbean. This collaborative initiative aims to revolutionize collaborative energy research, enhance resilience, and drive positive change across the region.

The UEnergyHub Caribbean will be a ‘Nexus of Innovation’. The UEnergyHub Caribbean will serve as a data hub and research entity, facilitating the analysis of energy demand and supply options. Its core functions include: Education – Fostering regional talent by providing a platform for learning and skill development. Sustainability and Outreach – Leveraging energy data for sustainable practices and community engagement. Climate Change Tracking – Understanding and addressing climate challenges through data-driven insights.

The Caribbean is home to the majority of Small Island Developing States which are experiencing the worst effects of climate change, yet 90% of the region’s electricity comes from burning of fossil fuels. More frequent and intense hurricane events are resulting in electricity supply disruptions. The Caribbean must undertake a transition to cleaner, more efficient and resilient energy systems.

Unlocking Energy Data is the path forward. The heart of UEnergyHub lies in its collaborative energy data hub network where the first pilot is already functional in Canada. By providing a flexible, secure infrastructure, the energy data hub enables real-time access to unbiased energy research. Researchers, innovators, and policymakers can explore emerging AI technologies, smart grid solutions, energy efficiency, and renewable energy options, using real usage and bill data.

We are breaking down barriers. Historically, ongoing access to real energy data has been elusive. UEnergyHub aims to change that. Through ethical partnerships with universities and others in Canada and Caribbean countries, CZITT and Screaming Power will accelerate the implementation of disruptive technologies. By bridging the gap between energy suppliers and users, the market will evolve faster, driving sustainable solutions.

We are announcing a call to action. As the UEnergyHub Caribbean takes shape, CZITT and Screaming Power invite stakeholders, academia, policymakers, and industry leaders to collaborate. Together, we can build a resilient, low-carbon energy ecosystem that withstands challenges and paves the way for a brighter, greener future.

About CZITT: Leading the Charge for Climate Action

The Carbon Zero Institute of Trinidad and Tobago (CZITT) is a non-profit organization committed to reducing net carbon emissions and promoting sustainability. As a signatory to the Paris Agreement, Trinidad and Tobago faces the urgent need to address climate change. “CZITT’s mission is to engage stakeholders, influence policy, and develop programs that mitigate the effects of climate change. With a strong focus on educating young talent, CZITT empowers the next generation to create a better, climate-resilient future,” says Donald Baldeosingh, electrical engineer and Founder of CZITT.
