After a massive blackout in the country that occurred at 11:00 am this Friday, the Cuban regime reported that "there is no defined time for restoring the service."
In a recent report, Lázaro Guerra, director of electricity at the Ministry of Energy and Mines, stated that there is no defined time for the complete restoration of the service, although efforts are being made to connect the electrical system as soon as possible.
The official also provided details on the situation of the National Electric System (SEN) after the collapse caused by the outage of the Antonio Guiteras thermal power plant, the largest in the country.
Guerra explained that the causes of this incident are being investigated, while the process of restoring electrical service has already begun.
Currently, each of the thermoelectric units is being reviewed, starting with the Energás Puerto Escondido plant, which has already restarted its electricity generation. The goal is also to connect the Boca de Jaruco plant, reported the official journalist Lázaro Manuel Alonso on his Facebook page.
To facilitate the synchronization of the units, microsystems or "islands" are being created using distributed generation groups in various territories, prioritizing those generators closest to the thermal blocks.
CUPET, the company in charge of fuel distribution, is providing the necessary supply to ensure electricity generation, the post details.
Although the regime says that the situation continues to be closely monitored, the population is facing a massive blackout with no clear horizon for a solution and is calling for the government to resign.
The day before, the highest authorities on the island had to face the population due to the growing public discontent over the crisis. Cubans go up to 20 hours a day without electricity.
