The thing here is when hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico in 2017 the devistation finally had an approved allotment of ($93) billion earmarked for Puerto Rico. At that time in 2017 one could have bought every home in Puerto Rico a 8-10kWp solar PV array and a 20kWh TESLA Power wall for right at an estimate of $63 billion dollars installed for parts and BOM in 2017-2018 dollars. Of course this didn’t happen and now one is circling around again trying to get solar PV for the “other 90%” of the population. Bureaucracy and politics, how many times must something be done (wrong) and how much will it cost, until it is done (right) once? The mention of PREPA in this article is a constant thread throughout Puerto Rico’s energy woes, even before Maria hit the island. Maria was the worst event, yet, there have been some serious tropical depressions and other hurricanes that have brushed Puerto Rico every year since Maria ploughed across the island.
