A Barbados Light and Power (BLPC) team, led by Distribution Supervisor Edward Cummins, is on a mission to support the Grenada Electricity Services Ltd. (Grenlec) in its recovery efforts following Hurricane Beryl’s devastation.
Linemen Tremaine Skinner, Shamar Atkinson, Christopher Hoyte and Donny Joseph have joined Cummins on this two-week initiative in Carriacou facilitated by CARILEC’s Disaster Assistance Programme (CDAP), which promotes regional cooperation and joint assistance among member utilities. Roger Blackman, managing director of BLPC and chairman of CARILEC joined the team at the airport to see them off.
CDAP is crucial in uniting member utilities to manage disaster impacts and provide essential manpower and supplies to those in need. Their expertise and dedication underscore BLPC’s commitment to regional solidarity and support in times of need. (PR)
