Power or water outages keep coming and are a daily reality for users. Once again, JIRAMA showed in a press release that it will introduce rotating load shedding during the day and night, resulting in cuts from 2: 30 pm to 5 pm and from midnight to 4 am on the Antananarivo interconnection network (RIA). Although these measures are planned, they do not fail to affect the daily life of the population.
A few weeks ago, it was mentioned that the delay in the supply of heavy fuel oil was the reason for the cuts. But this time, the company reveals that it faces major challenges in the transportation of heavy fuel oil necessary to produce electricity. The fault is particularly the lack of trucks available in Toamasina to transport this fuel to the power stations. A logistical headache ensues, where every delay in fuel transportation slows production and accelerates power cuts.
