The Ministry of Electricity and Renewable Energy in Libya’s east-based government has announced an “urgent plan” to rehabilitate the power grid in the Faqqat district of Benghazi.

According to a statement published by the ministry, the initiative is being implemented with direct support from the Libya Development and Reconstruction Fund and under the continuous field supervision of the ministry’s emergency committee. The plan aims to provide long-term stability to electricity supply in Faqqat, a neighbourhood that has struggled with frequent blackouts and an overstretched network.

A technical delegation from the emergency committee, accompanied by directors from the Benghazi branch of the General Electricity Company, carried out a field visit to the area. During the visit, the officials inspected the current state of the grid, reviewed technical shortcomings and met with local residents to hear their concerns and demands.

The ministry described Faqqat as one of Benghazi’s worst-affected districts in terms of electricity shortages. Residents have endured repeated power cuts, which have disrupted daily life, businesses and essential services. Officials stressed that resolving these problems has become a top priority in the government’s energy strategy.

The urgent rehabilitation plan is expected to cover key aspects of the local network, including upgrading transformers, reinforcing transmission lines and improving distribution capacity. By modernising the infrastructure, the ministry hopes to ensure greater reliability and reduce the frequency of outages.

The Development and Reconstruction Fund, led by Belgassem Haftar, has been actively involved in supporting infrastructure projects in eastern Libya. Its role in financing and coordinating the rehabilitation of Faqqat’s grid highlights the government’s intention to address long-standing service deficits in Benghazi and other urban centres.

The ministry concluded its statement by reaffirming its commitment to enhancing electricity services across the region, noting that stabilising the power supply is critical for improving living standards and supporting wider reconstruction efforts.
