On December 23rd, 2024, The Power Generation Company of Trinidad and Tobago Limited (PowerGen) celebrated its 30th Anniversary. To celebrate the occasion, the Company and its employees provided five hundred (500) food hampers to needy families within its communities.

Community has always been at the heart of what PowerGen does. Keeping the lights on is not just a job, it’s a service; and the Company’s social programmes are well aligned to how PowerGen relates to the communities it serves. The Company has a distinctive CSR footprint in the areas of youth sport and education and has invested significantly in arts and cultural development over the years. The Secondary Schools’ Cricket League and the artwall installation featuring large-scale reproductions of students’ artwork previously installed along Wrightson Road, are tangible testimonies to these social initiatives.

In celebration of its 30th anniversary, the Company has chosen to celebrate its anniversary by supporting five hundred (500) families in need. To make sure the hampers get to the right people, PowerGen has partnered with three (3) recognised non-governmental organisations championing noble causes – Is There Not A Cause (ITNAC), The Living Water Community and SEWA International Trinidad and Tobago. Employees are also shared in the distribution via the employee volunteers’ Community Relations Committee.

The targeted hamper allocations were 117 hampers being distributed through ITNAC, 115 through Living Water Community and 115 through SEWA TT. PowerGen’s Community Relations Committee members distributed 100 hampers and in the Penal community 53 hampers were donated to flood victims.

Looking ahead, PowerGen is poised to continue its legacy of powering the nation while uplifting the communities it serves. As the Company celebrates three decades of dedicated service, it reaffirms its commitment to ensuring reliable electricity and to making meaningful social impact through partnerships and community outreach.

PowerGen remains dedicated to innovating its operations, fostering youth development, and championing arts and cultural initiatives—all with the guiding principle that powering the country also means empowering its people. This milestone anniversary not only highlights PowerGen’s heritage, but also underscores its future promise: to remain a vital force that energises and transforms communities for generations to come.
