The main focus of this report is on mapping the planning and further implementation of the advanced electricity metering infrastructure on the BES islands, which is the basis for the implementation of the smart electricity system.  This report represents the result of the first support activity focusing on smart electricity systems and will be followed by a roadmap for the implementation of optimal solutions. 

This report is split into four parts. The first part provides an overview of the current situation of advanced metering infrastructure planning and implementation on all Dutch Caribbean islands, including the overview of electricity, water, and street lighting infrastructure. The second part reviews the existing business cases for the implementation of AMI, specifically in St. Eustatius and Saba. The third part provides best practices for the use of AMI from other countries. Finally, the last part includes an outlook and recommendations for the next steps for the BES islands.
