The reported scope of the partnership focuses on upgrades aimed at improving the electricity system, including technologies associated with “smart” infrastructure, alongside broader generation and renewables development. The outlets describe the MoU as part of GPL’s ongoing efforts to transform and modernise the national power sector.
