The government has decided to hire the Dominican Republic-based InterEnergy to supervise the installation of a new system for the Guyana Power and Light (GPL) to distribute power from the 300 megawatt Wales natural gas-fired power plant that’s expected to be finished by mid-2026.
Public Works Minister Deodat Indar and GPL Chief Executive Officer Kesh Nandlall on Tuesday emphasised that workers at the state-owned power company would not be laid off. “They’re not displacing any employees so let us understand that very clearly,” Mr Nandlall said. He also said that Guyanese workers would be working alongside their counterparts from InterEnergy.
