Surabaya (ANTARA) -

PT Pembangkitan Jawa-Bali (PT PJB) has ensured that the electricity supply from all generating units runs continuously during the 2019 Eid by preparing Eid Alert Posts to anticipate any disturbances.

President Director of PT PJB, Iwan Agung Firstantara, in his press statement in Surabaya on Monday, said the readiness of PJB during Lebaran is part of a commitment to continue to illuminate the country.

"All Generating Units owned by PT Pembangkitan Jawa-Bali will hold a Lebaran Alert Post, for the smooth supply of quality electricity that we produce," said Iwan.

He added that the alert post would place PJB employees on guard 24X7 hours per week, and not only in the Generating Unit, but also at the Head Office in Surabaya.

He explained that the Generation Unit (UP) of PT PJB in the East Java region was in UP Paiton, UP Gresik and UP Brantas, and all of them were the foundation in supplying quality electricity for Java and Bali.

"Other UPs are located in almost all of Indonesia, and we also ensure their readiness and reliability," said Iwan.

He said that with the commitment of PT PJB to continue to illuminate the country, people can comfortably enjoy Eid Al-Fitr with their families.

Iwan noted that the preparations by PT PJB were carried out in three stages, including pre-Idul Fitri, during Eid al-Fitr, and after Eid Al-Fitr, so that when a disturbance occurs, it can be dealt with quickly and carefully.

"With the spirit of professionalism, we, as qualified electricity producers, are committed to promoting service to the Indonesian people," he said.
