Samoa’s power supply issues continue as the Electric Power Corporation (EPC) announces ongoing outages and power rationing measures.

In a public advisory issued on 14 March 2025, EPC stated that the outages will persist due to essential infrastructure repairs and maintenance. The corporation cited three main factors affecting power stability; a faulty underground transmission line, maintenance at Fiaga Power Plant, and damage caused by severe weather on 9 March.

To address the faulty transmission line, EPC is constructing an overhead redundancy line from Siusega to the Fuluasou substation via Tuanaimato. This project is expected to be completed within two weeks. The Fiaga generators, which are undergoing maintenance, will be restored to full capacity, and additional generators have been ordered to meet growing electricity demand.

EPC has implemented a power rationing schedule and is urging the public to follow the official notices to ensure a fair distribution of electricity. The corporation is advising residents to prepare for outages by keeping essential devices charged, stocking up on necessities, using alternative lighting, unplugging sensitive appliances, and conserving electricity during peak hours.

Samoa has been experiencing consistent power outages across the country, affecting homes and businesses. EPC assured the public that efforts are being made to complete repairs as quickly as possible.
