Mr Caines said: “It is an honour and privilege to have been elected to the Carilec board to represent Belco and Bermuda.
“Belco has been a member of Carilec for over 15 years and I look forward to continuing and building on this relationship as we, and many other utilities in the Caribbean region, push forward with the transition to renewable energy sources.”
In announcing the new board, the Carilec secretariat said: “Each of these newly elected directors will contribute tremendously towards the effective leadership of the Caribbean’s Association of Electric Energy Solution Providers, as they possess a wealth of experience and expertise in their respective core disciplines, including law, finance and human resource management.”
