It is possible to experience power outages during a hurricane in Antigua. High winds, heavy rain, and flooding can cause damage to power lines, transformers, and other electrical equipment, leading to power outages that can last for hours, days, or even weeks.
Antigua and Barbuda Electricity Services (ABE) is the main provider of electricity on the island of Antigua. ABE has a storm preparedness plan in place to minimize the impact of hurricanes on the island's power supply. This plan includes pre-storm preparations, such as trimming trees and securing power lines, as well as post-storm recovery efforts, such as assessing damage and restoring power as quickly as possible.
