A union official from the company Électricité d’Haïti (EDH), in an interview on Magik 9 on Wednesday, November 12, 2025, confirmed what everyone already knows: the severe electricity rationing affecting the metropolitan area of Port-au-Prince will not be resolved anytime soon.

The reason: the Péligre hydroelectric plant, the country’s most important source of electricity production, shut down since May 2025, is still nonfunctional.
