Mayor Geordhin Hill-Lewis says the City will soon publish documents detailing its upcoming procurement of power from independent power producers.

He says this will include the announcement of tenders for the purchase of electricity from IPPs and timelines for bringing IPP-generated electricity onto the City’s supply network.
