Jamaica,
it seems, is in the grips of a Prepaid Electricity fever.
No
fewer than eight hundred (800) Jamaican
have signed up for the JPS CO (Jamaica Public Service Company) Pay As You Go
Prepaid Electricity Pilot according to Head of Marketing and Project Manager
for Pay-as-you-Go, Tishan Lee a s reported in the article “800
Persons Sign Up For Pre-Paid Electricity” published Wednesday May 13, 2015
by Jerome Reynolds, The Jamaica Gleaner.
The
PAYG Prepaid Electricity Program was launched in April 2015 in Kingston, St.
Catherine and St. Andrew as stated in my blog article
entitled “JPS
Co's Prepaid Power now in Jamaica - How @myJPSonline PAYG means a Digital Meter
with smartphone App for 5 KWh Advances”.
The initial pilot targets some two thousand (2000) customers from
April 2015 till December 2015. It's now garnering interest from Jamaican
outside of the Guinea-Pig area, with people from other parts of the island
wanting to get in on the 35% savings on their electricity bill.
Best
of all, if you're not satisfied with the way the service works, you can cancel
free of costs within the first twelve (12) months of installing the PAYG
Prepaid Service at your home.
Something
tells is at this pace, by July 2015, JPS Co would have already surpassed their
guinea-pig test target of 2000 customers in their test area.
Expansion
outside of the Test area, once approved by the OUR (Office of Utilities
Regulation), is therefore expected to be fast, as Word-of-mouth on the level of
savings spreads the goodness of PAYG Prepaid Power from JPS Co! Prepaid Power
Adoption is becoming a Prepaid Power Storm in the Summer of 2015!
