The Government has also approved the design for the construction of a new efficient and resilient electricity transmission network from the Roseau Valley to Fond Cole connecting the geothermal power plant to the hydroelectric power plant and to the national grid.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout.
