The Guyana Power and Light Inc (GPL) has again pledged to bring an end to the frequent power outages which have been sorely affecting residents on the East Coast and East Bank of Demerara.
This commitment was made during a meeting with the Prime Minister Mark Phillips and Minister within the Public Works Ministry Deodat Indar. Such pledges have routinely been made over the years by governments and GPL.
Over the weekend some communities were plagued with frequent power outages, a result of encumbrances to the 13.8kV line and lack of maintenance. This, Stabroek News understands, has been affecting the transmission of electricity from generating plants to households.
