Energy Minister, Dr. Vince Henderson, says Dominica is on track to make a major leap in renewable energy as the geothermal project continues on the island.

He went on to highlight plans to run a dedicated transmission line from Sugarloaf to the international airport, which will support a mini-grid in the northeast capable of operating independently during natural disasters.
