Government’s new blueprint for the Island’s energy use is “a good start”, but thin on details, according to the Opposition.Shadow Environment Minister Cole Simons of the One Bermuda Alliance called the 2011 Energy White Paper “long overdue”.Mr Simons questioned the assumptions used by Government to develop new energy strategies.He said the paper needed “more on current and future challenges faced by Bermuda when it comes to energy security, supply distribution and storage”, and needed to address the renewable energy limitations brought about by Bermuda’s small size.“The White Paper did not have much information on the impact of high energy prices on families, communities and businesses something that is a burden today and will be in the foreseeable future,” he said.“In particular, we would like to see more thought on how the Government can manage the impact of high energy prices on food, heat and electricity.”Other issues in need of detail, he said, included Bermuda’s management of energy production wastes, the Island’s oil spill readiness, and energy storage policies.
