The State Electricity Generation Company and transmission authorities have confirmed that the power transmission system is now operating at full capacity after experiencing recent outages that affected supply to multiple regions.
The restoration marks the completion of repair and maintenance work on critical infrastructure components of the national grid. Engineers worked to address faults in the transmission network that had necessitated rolling power cuts and reduced supply to consumers nationwide.
With the system now fully operational, electricity distribution has returned to normal schedules across the country. Authorities have stated that supply stability should be maintained as generation and transmission capacity operate at optimal levels.
The restoration is expected to ease pressures on consumers and businesses who faced disruptions during the period of reduced transmission capacity. Power authorities have urged continued conservation measures to support overall grid stability and prevent future supply constraints.
