The Guyana Power and Light Company (GPL) is seeking to source an additional 25MW in order to meet increased demand while working to address continuing power outages.
A meeting was held at the company’s Duke Street office, where Prime Minister Mark Phillips and Junior Minister of Public Works Deodat Indar met with GPL’s Chief Executive Officer Albert Gordon and other company officials in light of a recent spate of outages.
Indar told reporters that problems continue with the old grid system and there is also need for additional power in the interim, as GPL awaits generator sets that it has bought.
