No power cuts today, but interruptions may occur: PUCSL

Date:

There will be no power cuts today (19), said Chairman of the Public Utilities Commission of Sri Lanka (PUCSL) Janaka Ratnayake.

The Sapugaskanda Power Plant, which turned inactive yesterday due to running out of fuel oil, has been restored into the national grid and the Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) is receiving the required amount of fuel at the moment, Ratnayake revealed, pointing out that a power cut, therefore, will not be necessary today.

Nevertheless, power might drop in between 2 pm and 6 pm today in restoration of the grid system, the PUCSL Chairman added.
