The Jamaica Public Service company says it is on track to reduce the number of customers still without electricity after Hurricane Melissa to below 10 thousand at the end of today.
Up to February 11, the JPS had said approximately 17,000 customers in St Elizabeth, Westmoreland, Hanover and St James were without power.
JPS Corporate Communications Director, Winsome Callum, speaking Friday on Beyond the Headlines, said up to Thursday morning that number had been cut to just below 11 thousand customers.
Ms Callum explained that some customers may not have electricity, even at the end of the initial April projection for all communities to be restored.
She says this is because the company's infrastructure is being rebuilt, which will take months, and houses need to be rewired.
