Giving the company away would probably be the best you could do. Imagine a somewhat competent operator being able to charge on average 40c per kWh and all they need to do is keep the lights on. The average price in the US is 12c!

Sabotaging the power supply as promised in March... can't have no stinkin' foreigners fix the problem!

lobsta says...

Looks like the union came through on their promise that they would start to sabotage the supply if these new engines got installed.

This is the guy who is responsible for the power outages. From March 2019:

“It will be a cold day in hell, before I, Paul Maynard, allow Wärtsilä to come on a plant that the Bahamian people is paying $95m for and send my staff home,” the union chief told The Tribune yesterday in a harsh rebuke of BPL and the Finnish technology group.

“Let me tell you something, it will be a cold day in hell before Paul Maynard allows Wärtsilä to come in here on a plant we pay $95m for and run it, sending the staff that I represent home.

Management might be incompetent, but it's kind of odd that the union chief knows there will be rolling blackouts until Christmas. I wonder why?

lobsta says...

Absolutely. Traffic control at LPIA is basically a hobby operation. I wonder if there are unions involved.

lobsta says...

Of course not. They just spend much more money on everything than your average Bahamian, hire locals, pay their real property taxes in full and on time. Import more goods etc. but no, let's make another retarded xenophobic comment. You have no clue who keeps this island afloat.

lobsta says...

I agree. Something has to be said about his ability to keep people defending him despite how terrible a leader he was.

lobsta says...

sabotage.
