Kaieteur News – The Wales Gas-to-Energy (GTE) contractor, Lindsayca has promised the Government of Guyana (GoG) to deliver a fraction of the 300 megawatts power by the end of 2026, but this will not result in the promised 50% reduction in light bills for customers of the Guyana Power and Light (GPL).
This was made clear on Friday by Prime Minister Brigadier (Retired) Mark Phillips during a press conference to provide key update on the country’s electricity generation and supply at Colgrain House, Camp Street, Georgetown.
During remarks, Minister of Public Utilities and Aviation, Deodat Indar said, “At the end of the year, myself and the Prime Minister have gotten the commitment from Lindsayca, the Gas-to-Energy contractor that we will get one of the turbines that will generate 57MW of power.”
