Grenlec is enhancing electricity service with the installation of two new generators at its Beausejour, Carriacou Plant, expanding capacity to 4.2 MW to meet growing demand.
Wallace Collins, Grenlec’s Department Manager there said:
_“These new units will allow us to serve customers more reliably and with greater flexibility. With additional generation, we can carry out maintenance on existing units without interrupting electricity service. This upgrade also positions the Company to meet future demand on the island”._
The installation of the new generators will boost capacity following the 2023 fire, which damaged equipment. The Company’s operations will also be strengthened by accompanying upgrades to the Plant’s control, safety and monitoring systems.
To facilitate commissioning, Grenlec has scheduled an **island-wide outage in Carriacou on Sunday, 14 September 2025 from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.** Customers may also experience short interruptions during the week as testing continues.
Grenlec apologises for any inconvenience and assures customers of a stronger, more reliable supply once the commissioning and upgrades are complete.
