Guadeloupe has 23 power plants in this atlas, with 455 MW of reported capacity (reported for 16 of them). The largest listed plant is Centrale électrique Pointe Jarry (211 MW, oil; current status unverified). By number of records the most common technologies are wind, solar and oil. Grid operators listed here include EDF Archipel Guadeloupe. Electricity is regulated by CRE.
Reported capacity is the rated size of the listed installations, not electricity being produced now. Source dates and coverage differ, so newer facilities may be absent and historical records may remain.
Grid operators and electricity market in Guadeloupe
Island systemSmall isolated grid
Rules and tariffs follow mainland France: consumers pay the national regulated tariff and the extra cost of island generation is shared nationally.
No power exchange: the utility produces or buys electricity and sells it at set tariffs.
Regional grid
Not part of a larger synchronous grid or regional power pool.
What does “Island system” mean?
A small grid that is not connected to a larger network. One utility typically runs generation and distribution, often relying on imported fuel, with solar and batteries increasingly added.
