The Guyana Power and Light (GPL) yesterday apologized to customers in Bartica, Region Seven for the recent service interruptions as a result of three engines being down.
This latest generation problem will call into question the management of key infrastructure as a new power plant had been commissioned in Bartica in December 2019.
In a statement yesterday, GPL said that the Bartica Power Plant has four engines: two are required to meet the demand, while two serve as a standby unit.
“Unfortunately, we have only one operational engine in conjunction with the solar farm”, it said.
