AS the National Gas Company does expansion world on its network, the Trinidad and Tobago Electricity Commission (TTEC) is urging customers in Trinidad to conserve electricity.
In a notice TTEC said the work is scheduled to take place on Sunday (December 8) between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m.
It noted that this could affect NGC’s supply of gas to Trinidad Generation Unlimited (TGU) Power Station.
In the unlikely event that the work does affect the gas supply, there may be a temporary loss of electricity across Trinidad, TTEC stated.
As a precaution, TTEC is appealing to customers to minimise their use of non-essential, high-energy appliances and equipment such as air-conditioning units, dryers and water heaters, to reduce the risk of load shedding on Sunday.
