KUWAIT CITY, Nov 13: The Ministry of Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy has announced scheduled periodic maintenance work at several secondary substations on Saturday, resulting in temporary electricity disconnections in nine residential areas.

The maintenance work will begin at 8:00 am and is expected to last approximately four hours, as part of the Ministry’s periodic maintenance programme to maintain the efficiency of Kuwait’s electrical network and ensure the continued operation of its components.

The Ministry noted, however, that the power interruption duration may vary depending on the technical work being carried out at each substation. The scheduled maintenance period could therefore be extended or adjusted according to developments at the work sites.

Areas and Blocks Affected

Temporary power interruptions are expected in the following locations:

  • Sulaibikhat – Block 2
  • Al-Dhahr – Block 6
  • Al-Nahda – Block 3
  • Al-Farwaniya – Blocks 4 and 2
  • Al-Shaab – Block 1
  • Al-Rumaithiya – Block 9
  • Qurtuba – Block 4
  • Abdullah Mubarak Al-Sabah – Block 6
  • Ali Sabah Al-Salem – Block 2

The Ministry said the periodic maintenance programme includes monitoring the readiness of secondary substations and their components, as well as carrying out necessary inspections and technical maintenance.

Such work, it added, aims to maintain substation operational efficiency and strengthen the reliability and continuity of Kuwait’s electricity network.
