Malalaua Project
The Malalaua Power Station was opened in 2007 after being out of operation for nearly ten years.

The rehabilitation of the power station cost the Gulf Provincial Government a sum of K800,000 which was paid to PNG Power to install a 150 kVA generator to light up the township within the radius of one kilometer.

The areas that will be receiving electricity supply include the Malalaua, High School, Health Centre, Primary School and the District Administration building.

 

General Manager Technical Services, Chris Bais, was full of praise for job done by the Project Team when taken on tour of the project

Mr Bais said the Project Team did an excellent job in the erection of steel poles and transformers, stringing and tensioning of conductors, digging underground cables and construction of the new power house.

Project Manager, Ava Asigau thanked Mr Bais and other officials for touring the station. He also thanked members of the Project Team including Lines Foreman John Arua, Linesmen Billy Miro, Junias Tovok and Matep Liku, and Senior Project Officer Civil Luke Tavol, for the construction of the Power house and the completion of the project before expected time.
