AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Energy & Infrastructure: WEB has started work on BESS II, a 35 MW / 70 MWh battery energy storage system expected to be the Caribbean’s largest, targeting completion in 2028 and helping Aruba store more wind/solar power for a steadier grid. Tourism Performance: Aruba Tourism Authority (A.T.A.) reports August 2026 with 145,750 stayover visitors, 967,001 overnight stays, and a 6.6-night average length of stay; North America led with 69.6% of arrivals, and Gen X remains the biggest visitor segment (26.4%). Security & Tech: HPE issued security updates for its Networking Analytics and Location Engine (ALE), warning of 10 vulnerabilities that could allow remote compromise, including flaws affecting ArubaOS Wi‑Fi controllers/gateways. Border Operations: SITA launched “Border Flow Lane” to speed passenger processing with pre-clearance “move-through” lanes, aiming to cut clearance time up to eight times. Local Business Climate: Oranjestad revitalization investor Susanita La Bella says licensing restrictions and lack of support are blocking downtown projects despite years of promises. Construction & Public Works: Wilhelminastraat revitalization moves into final design after a contract for overall design work, setting up later construction. Sports & Community: Aruba Dolphins Open Water 2026 returns Sept. 27 in Savaneta with 1 km, 1.5 km relay, 3 km, and 5 km races.
