Jamaica has moved up on the World Economic Forum’s Global Energy Architecture Performance Index.
Prime Minister Andrew Holness says the country’s ranking rose from 166 to 92 in 2017.
The report analyses countries’ transition towards more affordable, secure and sustainable energy systems.
Holness says Jamaica’s improved ranking placed it among the 127 countries making significant strides in energy sector performance since 2009.
He made the disclosure on Friday at the ground breaking ceremony for the construction of a US$330 million 190 megawatt power plant, dubbed the Renaissance Project, at Old Harbour Bay in St.Catherine.
