Having successfully started the new engine for the first time, the Grenlec team\u00a0 is preparing to put the engine into full service over the next week.<\/p>\n
During the installation period over the past 11 weeks, special civil, mechanical and electrical\u00a0 works have been completed in preparation for the commissioning of the new generator, which\u00a0 will increase the Company\u2019s overall power generation capacity to 52MW.<\/p>\n
Clive Hosten, Grenlec\u2019s Chief Engineer, notes, \u201cWe are fortunate to have had a competent\u00a0 installation team and we look forward to the engine going into full service\u201d.<\/p>\n
Over the next three weeks, there is the possibility of unplanned service interruptions as the team\u00a0 integrates the new engine into its operating system.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe want customers to be aware that while Grenlec is making every effort to avoid\u00a0 inconvenience, it is not unusual for some disruptions to customers\u2019 service, during the\u00a0 commissioning, as the team resolves unforeseen challenges that may arise. Mr. Hosten added,\u00a0 \u201cHaving prepared customers for the possibility of outages, we hope the preparatory work our\u00a0 team has done will facilitate a smooth integration with little to no service interruptions\u201d.<\/p>\n
The Company anticipates that the new engine will be commissioned before the end of\u00a0 September.<\/p>\n
Grenlec apologises for any inconvenience that may arise and assures customers of its continued\u00a0 commitment to reliably serving Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
