Doubling GDP will require an increase in energy generation

Economist Henri Hebrard has stated that the Dominican Republic must increase its energy generation capacity to support the national goal of doubling its Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Projections indicate that the country will face a 47.6% rise in energy demand between 2025 and 2036 to sustain this economic expansion.

This anticipated growth in energy requirements necessitates proactive planning to ensure the electrical infrastructure can support the country's long-term economic objectives. The data highlights a direct correlation between the projected doubling of the economy and the corresponding need for an expanded energy supply over the next decade.
