Jamaica’s government is going greener.

The country announced recently that it would join the Solar Head of State coalition and install solar photovoltaic panels on the island’s national executive office, Jamaica House.

The announcement comes in keeping with the island’s promise to transition to 30 percent renewable energy by 2030.
