STELCO Energizes Greater Male’ Interconnection Project

During the last couple of hours of the technical work, there was a small power outrage in the early hours of Friday morning. As per STELCO, the only work left is to “Energize” and the transmission of electricity through Hulhumale’, Hulhule’ and Male’ will start by next Friday. This project was developed in order to overcome the electric issues occurring in Male’. 
 
Currently, Hulhumale’ requires 15 megawatts of electricity from the the 50 megawatts engine built in the island. Hence, the remaining megawatts of electricity will be distributed to Male’.The electricity demands in capital city, Male’ grows by 7% every year. With this project almost complete, STELCO hopes to equally provide to the growing demand.
