Governor of the Central Bank Cleviston Haynes has expressed doubt that the island can achieve the Government’s “desirable but ambitious” goal of becoming fully reliant on renewable energy by 2030.However, he said it was vital for the country to set the target to make that energy shift even if it occurred later than hoped.Although acknowledging that momentum toward reaching the goal was building, Haynes admitted on Wednesday he was not surprised the country was behind the target.“The 2030 plan has always been an ambitious objective. It is desirable but ambitious…. Will we get there by 2030? I am no expert in that area but maybe we won’t,” he said in response to questions from journalists during his quarterly economic review at the Frank Collymore Hall.
