The Jamaica Public Service (JPS) has reiterated that it is aware of and sensitive to the plight of customers who remain without electricity.

Following the devastation of Hurricane Melissa last October over 70% of JPS customers lost power.

Senior Vice President for Customer Experience Pia Baker noted that to date about 99.5% of customers have had electricity restored.

She noted that the JPS is committed to restoring electricity to all customers.

Ms. Baker underscored that the company’s engagement with affected communities includes outreach activities.
