Newfoundland and Labrador Hydro (Hydro) is advising that a generating unit at the Holyrood Thermal Generating Station has been removed from service  to complete annual  maintenance.

Unit 1  has been removed from service until the beginning of November. There is no anticipated impact for customers as a result of this work.

Hydro’s annual maintenance season generally begins in April when customer electricity demand begins to decline and extends to November in preparation for the winter months.

During this time, Hydro maintains, replaces, and upgrades electricity equipment throughout the province. This includes preventative and corrective maintenance work and inspections, as well as larger capital projects.

All major equipment advisories are posted on our website here.

For more information about our annual maintenance season, see here.
