 THE CONTINUES ELECTRICITY IS MORE THAN A SERVICE SCROLL DOWN

A robust and up-to-date infrastructure system is a necessary backbone of modern life.

The electric grid is what connects our homes and offices to power generation sources, so that we have reliable access to power all the time. The grid is most commonly designed as a centralized system, so that every customer who is on the grid is connected in some way to all the generation sources that are also connected to it. The electric grid consists of three main types of assets: the transmission system, the distribution system and substations. Bahamas Grid Company manages all three.
