In Suriname, electric power is supplied to the Paramaribo area primarily by hydroelectric power (a 180 MW power plant that supplies around 75% of the energy) and diesel generators (66 MW of diesel generation). The electrification level in Suriname is estimated at 85%, with 79% of the population connected to the EBS system.
As established in the Policy Development Plan 2017-2021, one of the main objectives of the Government of Suriname (GoS) is to provide clean and reliable electricity to all the villages located in the interior of the country (Hinterland).
Suriname's total installed electricity capacity (2010) was 355 MW. Currently, the country has a refinery with a capacity of approximately 7,500 barrels per day and imports oil from Trinidad and Tobago. Suriname is nearing self-sufficiency in the production of oil and could potentially join Trinidad and Tobago as a net exporter of energy.
The Electricity System Upgrade and Expansion Project in Suriname is an initiative by the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) and the government of Suriname. Its objective is to deliver a more reliable, efficient and sustainable electricity supply in Suriname.
The IDB supports the elaboration of a wind atlas for the coastal area, which will assess the feasibility of using wind energy in Suriname. The new operation will finance two solar mini grids interconnected to the distribution network in Brownsweg (500 kW) and in Alliance (200 kW), including an energy storage system.
The new operation will finance the extension of the line to the south of Powakka, connecting to the grid several villages around Koina Kondre. The IDB also financed the first solar mini grid in Suriname to provide 24/7 electricity to the isolated villages of Pokigron and Atjoni.
