LIBREVILLE - Gabon''s main electrical utility said that it will have to schedule power outages in the capital Libreville because of low water levels at its hydro-electric plants.
Instead of continuing to randomly cut off neighbourhoods of the capital, SEEG starting September 4 will announce "rotating load shedding of an average length of three hours, two to three times a day," it said in a statement read out on state television.
SEEG already warned at the end of the rainy season in June that reservoir levels at the Kinguele-Tchimbele dam, which produces half of the capital''s power, were insufficient.
Local media have reported that SEEG owes some 15 billion CFA francs ($25-million) to Aggreko, a British company that provides services at the plants and that has threatened to stop operating.
