Daily Fact Sheet
Saturday August 17, 2019

Bahamas Power and Light Company Ltd. (BPL) continues the work to address the serious load shedding and grid strain issues that have caused problems in the daily lives of so many of our customers in New Providence.  In our ongoing effort to communicate the breadth of the problems and the work being done to address them until we return the system to normal utility reliability, BPL is now delivering a daily report detailing the day’s outcomes and providing updates on anticipated issues and progress for the following day as we move forward. Our goal is to better inform the public and our customer of the steps being made to rectify this serious situation. Currently, our system is experiencing a shortfall of up to 40 megawatts of power during peak energy consumption. We have several aging generation units out of service that can provide a combination of the needed power when they are up and running and BPL is focusing our efforts on getting those units online.  

Below is the current status of the daily shortfalls and the state of repairs on the aging units... To view FULL BPL Daily Fact Sheet see attached
