Projects
Building Solutions at Home. Creating Possibilities for the Region.
Skydrate Global is currently developing projects that respond to environmental challenges while creating opportunities for innovation, investment, employment and local enterprise. Our current focus is Antigua and Barbuda, where we are working with strategic partners and stakeholders to advance an integrated approach to sargassum and suitable waste streams.
Our Flagship Initiative
Antigua & Barbuda Sargassum and Waste-to-Value Initiative
Skydrate is working to develop an integrated programme that explores how sargassum and other suitable waste materials can be responsibly collected, processed and transformed into useful resources. The initiative is intended to bring together environmental management, appropriate technology, local participation and commercial opportunity within one coordinated model.
Key Areas of Development
Five areas advancing in parallel.
01
Sargassum Management
Exploring responsible methods for collection, handling and beneficial use of sargassum affecting Antigua and Barbuda’s coastlines.
02
Waste-to-Value Solutions
Assessing suitable local waste streams and technologies that may reduce disposal pressure while creating useful outputs.
03
Technology & Technical Partnerships
Working with experienced international partners to identify solutions appropriate for Antigua and Barbuda’s needs.
04
Local Economic Participation
Creating opportunities for Antiguan and Barbudan workers, contractors, service providers and businesses as projects develop.
05
Government & Stakeholder Collaboration
Engaging relevant public and private-sector stakeholders to support responsible planning, approvals and implementation.
From Concept to Implementation
Projects of this scale require careful development.
01
Assessment
Understanding the problem, available waste streams and local requirements.
02
Technical Evaluation
Identifying appropriate technologies and potential outputs.
03
Feasibility & Planning
Evaluating environmental, operational and commercial viability.
04
Partnership Development
Bringing together the expertise, investment and relationships required.
05
Approvals & Implementation
Advancing viable projects through the appropriate regulatory and development processes.
Creating Local Value
The opportunity extends beyond environmental improvement.
As projects progress, Skydrate aims to support:
- Local employment and skills development
- Opportunities for contractors and small businesses
- New commercial activities and industries
- Reduced pressure on waste-disposal systems
- Cleaner and more resilient communities
- Greater economic value from resources currently treated as waste
A Regional Vision
Antigua & Barbuda First. Caribbean Potential.
Sargassum and waste-management challenges extend throughout the Caribbean. Our goal is to develop experience and solutions in Antigua and Barbuda that, where successful and appropriate, can be adapted through partnerships with other Caribbean territories.
Solve locally. Prove responsibly. Grow regionally.
