Power cuts today and tomorrow?

The Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) says that it will make a statement after 11 am today (24) regarding a power cut in the face of the current fuel crisis.

The Sapugaskanda power plant is currently in a state of complete inactivity due to a lack of fuel.

As a result, the national grid has lost nearly 110 megawatts of electricity.

Also, hydropower generation is at a minimum due to the dry weather conditions affecting the island.
