The Nevis Island Administration (NIA) is set to commence the drilling phase of Nevis’ geothermal project in June 2023.
This was announced at the new Cabinet’s ceremonial inauguration on Sunday during Premier Mark Brantley’ address. As Minister of Public Utilities and Energy, Mr. Brantley revealed that the drilling will comprise three production wells and two injection wells at Hamilton.
He also stated that since the start of such discussions dating as far back as 2004, this is the furthest development the project has seen.
