Energy Fiji Limited (EFL) will implement load shedding across the Central Division from today as repair works continue on a major transmission line.
In a notice, EFL confirmed that power will be rotated across four blocks, allowing customers in affected areas to receive electricity for limited periods during the day.
The power utility said the planned load sharing is necessary to ensure fair distribution of electricity while restoration work is ongoing.
“This means power will be rotated between areas so that everyone can receive electricity for a period during the day,” EFL stated.
The measure comes as crews continue repairs on critical infrastructure, with full restoration yet to be achieved.
EFL acknowledged the inconvenience caused to households and businesses but stressed that the approach is aimed at providing some level of access to all customers during the outage period.
“We understand this may be inconvenient, but this approach allows us to fairly distribute power until full restoration is achieved,” the statement said.
The company added that teams are working as quickly and safely as possible to complete repairs.
Customers are being advised to plan ahead and stay updated with the load shedding schedule as efforts continue to restore normal power supply.
