Nine generators installed so far as power outages continue

As the country continues to be faced with daily and intermittent power outages, all of the 17 heavy fuel oil generators which were procured from Honduras last year are still to be installed.

Guyana Power and Light (GPL) Deputy Chief Executive Officer Bharrat Harjohn told Stabroek News on Wednesday last that nine were installed and the team was working assiduously to connect the remaining eight to the power grid.

He said that all generators will be connected by March month end which is a deadline that the company will be sticking with.
