Energy Fiji Limited (EFL) wishes to advise its valued customers that planned maintenance works will be carried out on the 33,000 Volts Sabeto to Sigatoka transmission line on Sunday 3rd November, 2019.

EFL wishes to thank those Hotels and Resorts who have agreed to go off the EFL grid in order to allow us to minimize the disruption to all our other customers in the Sigatoka to Coral Coast areas. Weather permitting, these works will be undertaken as follows:
