Guyana Power and Light Inc. (GPL) signs a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Global South Utilities Power Enterprises Investment LLC (GSU), a company based in the United Arab Emirates. According to multiple reports, the MoU is intended to support GPL’s power sector modernisation efforts, including expansion of electricity generation capacity, development of renewable energy projects, and installation or improvement of “smart electricity” infrastructure. The outlets also report that a GSU delegation meets with President Dr Irfaan Ali as part of the engagement surrounding the agreement.
While the articles describe the MoU as a strategic partnership and focus on the intended areas of cooperation—generation, renewables, and smart grid or infrastructure—they do not provide further operational details such as project timelines, investment amounts, or specific technical components. The coverage presents the MoU as a step toward advancing GPL’s transformation agenda and strengthening external collaboration for electricity development in Guyana.
