After taking over from Umeme, UEDCL has set out how it intends to stabilise distribution — audits, overload work and system upgrades.
Briefing
Uganda Electricity Distribution Company Limited now runs the national distribution network. The LinkedIn note records the managing director’s account of the first months: a nationwide audit, overload on parts of the network, and a programme of infrastructure upgrades backed by regulator-supported finance.
Distribution is where generation actually reaches the customer. Outages, overloaded feeders and protection settings are engineering problems, not communications problems — and they sit in the same work as reclosers, switchgear and commissioning that energy contractors already know.
Samanga did not write these articles. The briefing on this page is ours; the original stays on LinkedIn.
