Extended power outages in Essequibo are due to maintenance works on generators, according to Guyana Power and Light Inc (GPL) spokesperson Wadecia Donald.
Donald, asked about outages in the county, told Stabroek News that GPL has been conducting maintenance work on two diesel-engine generators and as a result customers are experiencing the disruptions.
In a letter published in Monday’s edition of Stabroek New, writer Mohammed Khan said residents have been experiencing 12-hour outages daily‒6 hours in the morning and 6 hours at night—with no explanation.
