Sri Lanka will resume an uninterrupted electricity supply islandwide from today (22) following the successful restoration of Unit 2 of the Lakvijaya Power Plant, the National System Operator (NSO) has announced.
According to the NSO, technical staff successfully restored Unit 2 to its full generating capacity of 270 megawatts at 1:31 p.m. today.
As a result, the electricity demand management measures implemented over the past few days will no longer be necessary.
The NSO also expressed its gratitude to the public for their cooperation during the power management period from October 19 to 21, while regretting the inconvenience caused to consumers during that time.
