She said that the delivery would enhance the sub-region’s capacity to carry out routine and emergency maintenance promptly, reduce network downtime and improve transmission reliability.
She added that the intervention is also expected to support more efficient delivery of bulk electricity to distribution company load centres serviced by the sub-region.
