Africa-Press – Mozambique. Nine hundred families from the neighborhoods of Polana Caniço, Triunfo, and Inhagoia in the city of Maputo were temporarily left without electricity due to floods affecting some Transformer Stations (TS).

According to a statement from the Mozambique Electricity Company (EDM), the floods caused disruptions in the power distribution network, leading to the interruption for 900 customers, with 800 from the Triunfo and Polana Caniço “B” neighborhoods, and 100 from Inhagoia.

The statement further explains that connections are being made only to houses that meet safety conditions via neighboring TS. As a result, electricity has been restored to some residences in the Triunfo and Polana Caniço “B” neighborhoods, while in the Inhagoia neighborhood, efforts are underway to identify a high ground location for the installation of a TS, as the area in question is low-lying and prone to flooding.
