PPDI denies using Chinese-made parts for power plant maintenance

The state-run Power Producers and Distributors Inc. (PPDI), which operates and maintains four power plants on behalf of the Guyana Power and Light Inc. (GPL), yesterday debunked assertions that it is using Chinese-made spare parts in the execution of its maintenance activities.

Through a press release yesterday afternoon, the company said that it wanted to respond to the assertions that are being made through a voice-note that has been circulating social media with specific claims about the company.

It said that they wanted to inform all stakeholders that the claim of Chinese-made spare parts being used in the execution of their maintenance activities is “completely false.”
