Suárez, Senior Business Specialist of UNE, attended the meeting.

Mr. Ramon Lopez Ramos, gave a detailed presentation on the development of the power sector and the national power development plan of Cuba. He said that Cuba currently relies mainly on fossil fuels for power generation, which is costly. In order to safeguard national energy security and change the current situation of Cuba's high dependence on imported energy, the Cuban government has attached great importance to the development of renewable energy in recent years, and has proposed to utilize biomass, wind, solar and other methods to increase the proportion of renewable energy power generation to 30% by 2030.  The development of renewable energy aims at gradually reducing the proportion of imported energy, realizing energy self-sufficiency and inject impetus for economic development.
