Amid growing concerns about rising temperatures on the island, Solar Dynamics Ltd., a long-established renewable energy company in Barbados, has introduced a cost-effective solution to combat the sweltering heat: solar-powered air conditioning units. Known for its innovative solar water heating systems since 1974, Solar Dynamics continues to expand its portfolio with these new sustainable cooling solutions​.
Managing Director George Connelly underscores the benefits of this technology for Barbadian households, offering a greener, more energy-efficient alternative to traditional air conditioning units.

Joe Pengfa Zhou, a trainer from China, explains that photovoltaic (PV) panels are key to powering these units. Unlike standard air conditioners, which rely on conventional electricity, solar AC units use the direct current (DC) produced by the solar panels, leading to greater efficiency and energy savings.
Zao, from Solar Dynamics’ partner company GD Tento, is currently in Barbados overseeing installations and conducting training sessions for local teams. He is educating them on the latest technologies and best practices for the maintenance and management of solar air conditioning units, ensuring that Barbadian technicians are fully equipped to handle this innovative system.
