GPL Makes Progress, But Falls Short

Guyana’s power grid made strides in 2025, slashing outages by 40% year-over-year—but still fell short of its own goals. While outage frequency dropped to 86 (just missing the target of 85) and average duration fell to 84 minutes (vs. 125 minutes the prior year), the numbers remain too high for international standards. Most issues stem from feeder trips caused by accidents like construction or vehicles hitting lines. Voltage monitoring remains patchy, with the Public Utilities Commission insisting full real-time coverage is needed to truly understand grid health. Progress is real—but not enough to meet targets or global benchmarks. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
