AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoAir Connectivity: Air France will launch a new nonstop Pointe-à-Pitre–Panama City route from 11 Dec 2026, twice weekly (Mon/Fri outbound; Tue/Sat return) with A320 service and free Wi‑Fi for Flying Blue members, aiming to boost links across the French Caribbean and onward connections via Copa’s Panama hub. Geothermal & Energy: Guadeloupe’s Sud-Soufrière geothermal exploration permit has been granted to Albioma for five years after a tender, covering 62 km² across several communes; drilling still requires separate environmental authorization. Tourism & Travel Demand: Air traffic data show regional momentum: while Jamaica’s Montego Bay figures fell sharply in July, the broader Caribbean travel picture remains active, and the new Air France route adds to the connectivity push. Business Finance: Ormat Technologies reported Q2 results with 10.6% revenue growth and a surge in energy storage revenues (nearly tripling), supported by pricing and new capacity—another signal of investment interest in renewables. Regional Community & Inclusion: Guadeloupe is confirmed among participating territories for the inaugural Special Olympics Caribbean Beach Games in Jamaica (18–22 Nov), expected to draw about 2,000 athletes and boost sports tourism. Environment Watch: A report flags foreign plastic waste piling up along Jamaica’s coast, including debris linked to the wider Caribbean—raising pressure for cross-border waste management.
