The Sixth Caribbean Sustainable Energy Forum is a Flagship Event of CARICOM Energy Month 2018.

CARICOM Energy Month (CEM) has been established as an annual event, through a mandate from CARICOM Energy Ministers to address the need for increased awareness on energy matters, given the critical importance of energy to the economic development of the Region.

CEM is also a celebration of the significant strides that have been made within the CARICOM Region in our transition to a sustainable energy pathway.
