More Than 3,000 Households Benefit from Community Electrification Programme

Since 2020, more than 3,000 households have benefited from the Government’s flagship Community Electrification Project, securing legal access to the nation’s energy grid and reducing damage to life and property.

The initiative, which is being implemented by the Jamaica Social Investment Fund (JSIF), is spearheaded by the Ministry of Science, Energy, Telecommunications and Transport in partnership with the Jamaica Public Service Company (JPS).

Addressing a recent Jamaica Information Service (JIS) Think Tank, Managing Director of JSIF, Omar Sweeney, said the programme is providing vulnerable Jamaicans with access to electricity.
