During the coming days, Enemalta will be carrying out works in Marsalforn to not only improve the electricity distribution in the area, but it will also be preparing so that the work can be continued over the coming months.?

This was announced by Minister for Gozo and Planning Clint Camilleri during a visit to Triq il-Qbajjar, Marsalforn where the intervention will take place.

The Minister explained out that this extensive project to improve the Enemalta network in Marsalforn, will later continue to spread to other localities as part of a wider project that is being worked on by the Enemalta in Gozo to continue to strengthen the distribution and supply of electricity.

The Minister explained that the project will be divided into four phases with the aim of reducing the inconvenience both for the residents, businesses and for tourists in the resort.

He said that the first phase, and which will be ready before the start of the summer season, will see the installation of a new electric cable in a part of Triq il-Qbajjar of more than 340 meters. After the season ends, the project will continue along the stretch of road as well as in other roads which Enemalta has already identified, drawn up the necessary plans and adjudicated the tenders.

The Executive Chairperson of Enemalta, Eng. Ryan Fava, said that this work that will be done in Marsalforn is part of the reinforcement in the distribution of electricity for Gozo. ”In the past months, Enemalta, together with the Ministry for Gozo, placed new 11 kilovolt cables in Nadur and Xlendi in order to provide Enemalta with more alternative connections that facilitate the supply is returned in a shorter time, in case of faults.”
