Grenada Electricity Services Ltd. confirms the restoration of electricity service to all customers in Carriacou at approximately 8:30 am on Saturday, 29 April.
Following the fire which occurred at the power plant in the early morning hours of 28 April, the Grenlec Team worked diligently to bring 2 of 4 engines online to bring service to the island.
While the engines are currently operating at full capacity, Grenlec advises that significantly increased demand on these 2 engines can affect electricity supply.
Grenlec is pleased it was able to restore power to its customers after the incident by bringing these 2 engines online as a provisional measure. The Company will assess the full extent of damage to its remaining engines and determine the best approach to restoring full power generation capacity to the island.
Grenlec officials thank customers for their cooperation and understanding while the team worked to restore power and remind customers to continue to conserve energy.

Yes it was a great effort from grenlec to get the power plant back up and running within 24 hrs…but the electrical supply to consumers did not return until 6.00pm on Saturday 29th…not 8.30am as stated in this report

Electricity was up and running for some us in Beausejour at 6.00pm on Saturday and others didn’t get electricity until 3.00am Sunday morning. So Grenlec needs to go back and revisit their comments.
Great news
