Energy Sector Opportunities In Dom Rep LNG CONVERSION: The new terminal will generate needs for financing, equipment, molecules, transportation, pipe lines, etc. RENEWABLE ENERGY: Incentives have been given to investments in renewable energy such as wind, solar, hydro and biomass. OIL AND GAS EXPLORATION: A new ministry of Energy and mines has been created in Dom Rep with the purpose prioritize the sector. Oil and gas exploration will be developed.

CONCLUSIONS Given the fact that: Trinidad is the major hydrocarbon supplier of Dominican Republic. DR has started to give priority to the energy sector New energy projects are been developed. It’s proposed that both Trinidad and Dominican Republica start a process of identifying synergies to complement each other in the energy sector.
