(Kaieteur News) – The Port Kaituma Power & Light Inc on Monday announced that it will soon integrate a new 940 kVA generator into its power system.
In a release to the media, the company said the addition marks a significant step toward ongoing efforts to meet the community’s growing demands for reliable electricity.
“The new unit will boost the company’s total generation capacity and enhance service stability for 1078 households and businesses. The arrival of the generator comes in response to increased electricity consumption driven by recent commercial and residential growth in Port Kaituma and surrounding areas. By adding this new unit to its power generation fleet, it will be better positioned to handle peak demand periods, reduce the risk of outages, and improve overall supply reliability,” the company said.
Final inspections and integration of the generator are expected to be done over the coming weeks. Residents and businesses could see benefits of the increased capacity by early May.
“Port Kaituma Power & Light Inc. thanks the community for its continued patience and cooperation as it works to modernise and expand its infrastructure. We are committed to delivering safe, reliable, and affordable power to support community growth and economic development,” the company added.
