South Sudan’s Juba Electricity Distribution Company (JEDCO) said it would ration power across its service areas for 30 days from Tuesday, November 10, while it shuts down its power plant for a major overhaul.
The shutdown will reduce the amount of electricity available to customers, JEDCO said in a statement.
The company said the work was necessary to improve the reliability and efficiency of power generation.
Customers may face scheduled outages during the overhaul.
JEDCO said it would follow an approved schedule to distribute the available power fairly across the areas it serves.
The company urged customers to plan ahead, apologised for the inconvenience and thanked them for their cooperation.
