The Dominican Electricity Transmission Company (ETED) has formally announced a scheduled preventive maintenance project that will take place at the 69 kV Los Mina substation this coming Saturday, June 6, 2026. The four-hour work is set to run from 10:00 a.m. local time to 2:00 p.m. local time, and is a core component of the state utility’s long-term strategic initiative to upgrade and refine the country’s national electricity transmission infrastructure.
To facilitate the safe execution of this planned upgrade work, ETED confirmed that it will be necessary to temporarily suspend electrical service to a total of 10 residential communities, all located within the municipality of Santo Domingo Este. The affected residential areas include Los Mina, Boreal, Los Tres Brazos, Las Enfermeras, Los Platanitos, Mil Flores, Mirador del Ozama, Santo Tomás de Aquino, Riviera del Ozama, and San Lorenzo. Beyond residential zones, two major commercial entities — Templatisa and Megacentro — will also face power interruptions for the full duration of the maintenance window.
In its public statement, ETED extended its gratitude to local residents and business operators for their patience and understanding while the work is carried out. The utility emphasized that this proactive intervention is a critical part of its ongoing nationwide transmission network maintenance and modernization roadmap. The ultimate goal of these upgrades, ETED notes, is to continuously boost the stability and operational efficiency of the Dominican Republic’s entire electrical system. These foundational improvements, the company added, will create the reliable infrastructure required to support the country’s ongoing energy transition and digital transformation efforts in the coming years.
