High energy costs also directly reduce the living standards of Jamaican consumers who own few cars, air conditioners, and other modern conveniences. https://t.co/NbiIgmPVQW https://t.co/H1EPUk9qxU — PolitiTweet.org

There's no fossil fuel resources on Jamaica, and because even the larger Caribbean islands are pretty small they suffer diseconomies of scale in terms of importing them leading to low competition and high prices. https://t.co/NbiIgmPVQW https://t.co/MwUpeLbzPW — PolitiTweet.org

In other words, to become a rich country Jamaica doesn't just need to replace its existing fossil fuel energy it needs dramatically more energy. With more energy, for example, they could solve their water-scarcity issues. https://t.co/NbiIgmPVQW https://t.co/LvvKoLJHu7 — PolitiTweet.org
