The Public Utilities Commission of Sri Lanka (PUCSL) has approved the request of the CEB for power cuts of 2 hours and 20 minutes from Sep. 23 – 25.
The decision was taken after considering the unavailability of Old Laxapana Stage 1, lack of fuel availability at Westcoast and due to sudden increase in demand.
Accordingly, a one hour powercut is scheduled for daytime followed by a one hour and 20 minute power cut at night for groups ABCDEFGHIJKLPQRSTUVW.
