Unit 1 of the Lakvijaya Power Plant in Norochcholai will be reconnected to the national grid by next week, the Ceylon Electricity Board says.
CEB’s media spokesperson Andrew Nawamani said the repairs of Unit 1 are expected to be completed by next Monday (August 29).
After Unit 1 is back in operation, 300 megawatts of electricity will be added to the national grid.
Meanwhile, due to the essential maintenance work of Unit 2, the national grid has lost another 270 megawatts of electricity. Accordingly, only Unit 3 is operative at the moment.
