Solomon wants answers on GTE spending as December deadline looms

(Kaieteur News) – As the December deadline approaches for the first power from the Wales Gas-to-Energy (GTE) project, concerns are mounting over the cost of the development and whether it will finally bring an end to the country’s persistent blackouts.

A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) Member of Parliament (MP) Sharma Solomon, is demanding answers from the Government of Guyana (GoG) on how much money has been spent on the project to date and what measures have been implemented to ensure Guyanese do not continue to face blackouts while the power plant remains under construction.

Solomon said, “Daily the working people of this country are expected to endure rising living costs, pay their electricity bills and still wonder how many more times in the same day blackouts will leave them without power.”
