AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoRoute du Rhum – Destination Guadeloupe: The home stretch is on for the Nov. 1 solo sprint from Saint-Malo to Pointe-à-Pitre, with 118 skippers and a fiercer “race within the race” across Ultim, Ocean Fifty, IMOCA, Class40, Vintage Multi and Vintage Mono after a push for ever-faster boats. Offshore Sailing in the Caribbean spotlight: The Class40 fleet is set to be the biggest at the start, and the wider offshore calendar keeps building momentum, including the CIC MED Channel Race’s 2027 expansion with a new Sun Fast 30 OD class and a mixed-doubles format running alongside Class40. Energy & resilience: A Caribbean economic report warns that energy insecurity is a structural vulnerability, urging utilities, regulators, governments and consumers to align on energy sovereignty to cut exposure to oil-price shocks. Geothermal investment (global, but relevant for renewables): Ormat won up to ~$35M from the U.S. DOE to advance enhanced geothermal and hydrothermal projects—another signal of continued momentum in renewable heat.
