(Kaieteur News) – The Guyana Power and Light Incorporated (GPL) on Tuesday signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Pacific and Auro Power Inc., a joint venture between a local and a multi-national company, to explore potential upgrades to the national power distribution network.

In a statement, GPL said that the MoU establishes a non-exclusive framework for the two entities to identify, evaluate, and develop power sector infrastructure projects in Guyana.

“It does not commit either party to finance or undertake any specific project but outlines a process for jointly identifying and assessing priority projects for possible future development,” GPL said.
