Energy Minister Daryl Vaz echoes concern that JPS is likely to miss the August 12 power restoration deadline

Energy Minister Daryl Vaz has again expressed concern that the Jamaica Public Service (JPS) is likely to miss the August 12 deadline for power restoration.

Mr. Vaz has also restated the call for the Office of Utilities Regulation (OUR) to ensure that the JPS complies with its directive in relation to electricity reconnection.

The minister’s comments come in the wake of reports from the JPS that it has restored power to 97% of its customers following disruptions caused by Hurricane Beryl on July 3.

Mr. Vaz noted that a percentage does not adequately gauge the situation and that having over 16,000 customers still without power is unacceptable.
