DOMINICA – Dominica is experiencing electricity problems due to a generation shortfall which has led to increased load shedding leaving many consumers frustrated.

With the Caribbean experiencing excessive heat, the timing couldn’t be worse.

During a media conference, general manager of Dominica electricity services limited explained they’re facing a generation shortfall due to an ageing generation fleet. She says over 10 megawatts of generation that is in the diesel section is past due for retirement.

Officials say generators will be needed to address the pressing issue.
