In July 2020, the government announced plans to add 190 MW of generating capacity to Port-au-Prince, including 60MW of thermal power facilities. The largest planned project was a 55MW (60MW installed) fuel-flexible plant. (Note: The exact amount of capacity that will be operational in 2020 is not explicitly stated in the passage, but the announced capacity is 190 MW.)
The solar power plant in Haiti has a capacity of 1.2 MWp. It is located in the Commune of Jacmel, South-East Department, and is connected to the regional electricity network of Jacmel.
In 2022, grid instability and a lack of available electricity led to EDH (Electricite d’Haiti, the national electric utility) announcing that it could only supply 4 to 6 hours of electricity a day to its customers in the Port-au-Prince metropolitan area and was implementing power rotations for distribution.
Peligre is a critical infrastructure in Port-au-Prince because E-power, the only other metropolitan electricity producer, is reliant on Peligre’s operations. Therefore, any disruption to Peligre's operations could significantly impact Port-au-Prince's electricity production.
The Haitian government prioritizes the procurement of fuel to reliably supply turbines. There are plans for 10MW facilities in Port-de-Paix and Jacmel and a 5MW array in Jeremie. Grand’Anse and Nippes Departments in the southern region were also targeted for smaller power generating facilities.
In April 2023, EDH workers at the Peligre hydroelectric dam went on a three-week strike over five months of unpaid salary arrears, resulting in a Port-au-Prince wide blackout.
