The Jamaica Public Service Company says it has restored electricity to most of its customers who experienced outages as a result of Tropical Storm Rafael.
The company says it is continuing its efforts to expedite restoration of supply to customers still without service.
JPS President & CEO Hugh Grant says less than five per cent of the company's 692,000 customers lost power due to the adverse weather conditions associated with the Tropical Storm.
He says the largest number of customers without electricity at any point during the storm was 30,000.
That number was reduced to 10,000 as at 3 o'clock Wednesday afternoon.
Mr. Grant says despite ongoing challenges with persistent heavy rains and strong winds in some parishes, JPS teams were continuing their efforts to get supply back to customers, where it was safe to do so.
