AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Puerto Rico Power Push: Gov. Jenniffer González says a bidding process is underway to add 3,000 megawatts of electricity by late summer, with nearly 1,000 megawatts more coming soon via repairs and upgrades—aimed at cutting chronic outages after Hurricane Maria exposed a grid already under strain. Maritime Momentum: HMS Ferries reports a record start to 2026, with ferry ridership up more than 7% in the first four months (706,000+ passengers) and on-time performance averaging 95%. Caribbean Air Shake-Up: Caribbean Airlines is cutting loss-making routes from June 1, including withdrawing from Dominica and St. Kitts and reducing frequencies to Martinique and Guadeloupe, after reporting tens of millions in route losses. Local Watchdog Action: DACO has begun special inspections tied to hurricane-season sales-tax exemptions, focusing on whether checkout systems correctly apply tax-free items. Business & Crime Notes: A federal judge denied a bid to revoke a pastor’s passport in a fraud-linked bankruptcy case, while an SEC filing shows an investor trimmed its Planet Fitness stake.
