PM Phillips inspects Lethem Power Company operations
Prime Minister Brigadier (Ret’d), Mark Phillips conducted an inspection of the Lethem Power Company (LPC) Inc operations during a one-day visit to Region Nine (Upper Takutu-Upper Essequibo) on Friday. During the visit, Prime Minister Phillips toured the utility company's facilities and received briefings from senior personnel on the operations and functionality of the generator sets and solar farm integrated into the township's power grid. LPC currently operates a 1.0-megawatt solar panel which has significantly increased its generation capacity, displacing approximately 4,270 barrels of diesel fuel since its installation in August 2022 and which has contributed to significant savings. The team explained that despite ongoing growth in the region due to increased economic activity and housing developments, the company is well-equipped to provide an efficient and reliable power supply to the community. The Prime Minister emphasised the importance of maintaining this capacity to ensure that residents have access to consistent electricity as demand continues to rise (OPM photos)
