The Jamaica Public Service Company (JPS) is reporting that it has made significant progress in preparing for the conversion of  its Bogue power plant to accommodate gas-based fuels.

The electricity company has identified at least two low cost fuel options available to be used at the plant in Montego Bay.  The introduction of gas is part of  the national drive for fuel diversity, and will help reduce the country’s dependence on oil as the main fuel for electricity generation. The company expects that the conversion will also result in significant foreign exchange savings.
