The Electrical Union (UNE) of Cuba predicts blackouts for this Tuesday during peak hours, with a generation capacity deficit greater than the previous day.
The week did not start well and everything seems to indicate that it will get worse, after a Monday in whichThe initial forecast, which was for an impact of 135 MW, was exceeded.
The blackout lasted a total of 5:20 hours, from 4:39 pm to 9:59 pm. The maximum impact was 274 MW at 8:10 pm, coinciding with the period of greatest demand.
According to himpart of the UNE, this Tuesday at 7:00 am the availability of the national electroenergy system (SEN) was 2240 MW and the demand was 2000 MW, with all the load served, so No effects are expected due to capacity deficit during daytime hours.
For peak hours, the entry of distributed generation engines that are awaiting maintenance is estimated, and their use is authorized with 100 MW, as well as another eight engines in the Moa fuel plant, with 135 MW.
If this forecast is met, an availability of 2,475 MW and a maximum demand of 2,700 MW are announced for the peak consumption hours, for a deficit of 225 MW, so if the expected conditions are maintainedAn impact of 295 MW is forecast during this time.
Three units of the Santa Cruz, Rente and Felton thermoelectric plants are out of service due to breakdowns, and two other blocks of the Mariel and Nuevitas CTE are under maintenance.
In addition, due to lack of fuel, 59 distributed generation plants are not operating, the Moa fuel plant and the Santiago de Cuba patana, for a total of 542 MW.
The limitations on thermal generation are 426 MW.
