STATEMENT OF RECENT OUTAGES

Basseterre, St. Kitts (26th September 2023)— SKELEC wishes to advise that earlier today Genset 1 and
Genset 11 were taken offline to perform emergency repairs to a leaking line and turbocharger. In addition
to these failures there are also two other gensets which are offline for planned maintenance overhauls. As
such, it has become necessary to conduct emergency load reduction outages due to reduced capacity at our
Needsmust Powerplant.

Our teams at the Powerplant and in the Transmission and Distribution Division are working assiduously to
repair faults and increase generation capacity. Once all repairs are successful, power is expected to be
restored to all affected areas as soon as is reasonably possible. After such time, consumers who remain
without power should call 465-2013.

As the situation at the Powerplant remains fluid, consumers are asked to pay attention to the company’s
social media pages for all updates and notices. SKELEC apologizes for any inconvenience caused and
thanks the public for its continued patience.
