For the first half of 2013 LUCELEC customers paid less per unit of electricity than they did last year.  So says LUCELEC Corporate Communications Manager Roger Joseph.

The reduced rate is due to a drop in the fuel surcharge applied to every unit of electricity sold.  Joseph says since February the fuel surcharge has been negative resulting in a tariff reduction for customers.

Sixty five students have been selected for the 2013 St Lucia Electricity Services Limited (LUCELEC) Summer Employment Programme. Beginning in the early 1980s, the programme facilitates internships for students on summer vacation from secondary schools, the Sir Arthur Lewis Community College, as well as provides employment for students on vacation from universities.

St. Lucia Electricity Services Limited (LUCELEC) is continuing its longstanding support of the Creative Industries with sponsorship of the Take Over Tent, Ambassadors, Spectrum, De Calypso Revue and South Calypso Tents.  

Chairman of the Ambassadors Calypso Tent, Fitzroy “Bingo” Leon says the LUCELEC funds enable the tents to meet a number of financial commitments including the day to day operations of the tent.
