Good news as we rebuild our Territory! Beginning today, the Virgin Islands Water and Power Authority is launching the “No Customer Left Behind” campaign to reconnect all customers who were not restored during previous stages of restoration. This campaign begins on St. John which is approximately 98% restored. WAPA Customers on St. John, who have not been restored, are highly encouraged to call the "No Customer Left Behind" telephone hotline number at 340-715-8020.

Identical campaigns will be launched on St. Thomas and St. Croix once WAPA is closer to the end of its restoration efforts on these islands.

The Energy Office echoes Governor Mapp's sentiments on future large-scale PV construction projects...

During their tour of St. Croix on Sunday, members of the House of Representatives Energy & Commerce Committee visited solar farm sites at both Clifton Hill and Orange Grove. Despite being closer to the eye of Hurricane Maria in western St. Croix, the solar panels at Clifton Hill received little damage where those at Orange Grove were virtually destroyed. Governor Mapp attributes better design and construction at Clifton Hill and has urged that it serve as an example for future solar farm construction.
