This Tuesday, engineer Lázaro Guerra Hernández, General Director of Electricity at the Ministry of Energy and Mines, reported on the electricity generation situation in Cuba during a live broadcast on state television.
According to the reportThe maximum impact of the previous day was 1,749 MW at 7:10 in the evening, coinciding with the peak demand time of the system.
The engineer explained that the disruption occurred due to an unexpected increase in demand compared to what was forecasted. "Today we expect a 1,450 MW disruption at noon and 1,726 MW at the peak demand of the system," he detailed. Despite this situation, a slight improvement is expected compared to the previous day.
One of the factors that could favor electrical stability is the distribution of fuel to the floating power plants located in the Bay of Havana. "Fuel is already being distributed, which will allow these two power plants to be available for today," reported the Electricity general director.
Power outages March 5th Cuba
Additionally, it is expected that by tomorrow the Mariel and Moa plants will receive the necessary fuel for their operation. "Tomorrow the availability condition should improve significantly," assured the specialist, who emphasized that the system will benefit from the start-up of these facilities.
During the day of March 5th, distributed generation will also receive fuel in order to improve availability. However, a high impact forecast is maintained at noon due to the start-up process of the engines in the floating power plants. "For the system's peak demand, these engines will already be fully operational, so a reduction in impact is expected," explained the Cuban executive.
Everything is a lie, it seems they enjoy seeing a whole town plunged into misery. They talk about human rights violations and treat a whole town like animals. They talk about scarcity and buy a $10 million plane. They talk about fasting and their children go to parties with all kinds of food and excesses. Where is the concept of fidelity revolution, I believe they buried it with him. Where is the manifesto of October 10th. Here everyone is a parasite, no one cares about anything, blackouts for the people and luxuries and power for this corrupt government. They donate money to repair the electrical system and it gets lost in the full pockets of the leaders. But if we say these things, we are subdued and imprisoned. This government spends more on posters and events than on medicine and improvements for the people.
What a barbarity of improvement are you talking about when today Thursday, when you are talking to me about the improvement, they put it on at 12 noon and by two o'clock they took it off enough please stop laughing at the people of Cuba.
God willing and it is true because everything they say is a lie what has happened to all the money and oil that Russia supposedly gave yesterday was going to improve and it was worse but since they don't need it, the people don't care.
Good morning to those who have it, until when will be the issue of lies that they had already said that this issue of electricity was going to improve, we are finished please in my municipality Placeta Villa Clara we are devastated without breath without shadows they don't give us an hour of electricity and it goes away, we are tired there is no food that lasts as if the issue of food were around the corner and on top of that very expensive so that the little we can buy goes bad. Don't say anymore that this will be fixed, there is no cure please!!
In Granma, a province at the forefront nationally but at the cost of power outages.
I am from Villa Clara, two hours of power outage in the early morning, this is inhumane, every day the same and they with the same story.
It's true, we know there are problems, in the West only the good is given, the bad is for the East, everyone knows that the big blackouts are ours.
I think the main problem is the poor planning, organization, and control by the provincial electric company of Pinar del Rio when it comes to circuit rotation. There is no plan for rotation, as evidenced by blocks experiencing more than 24 hours without power while others are minimally affected. I believe it is time for the country's leadership to take action to eradicate blackouts because the situation is now out of control and the people are quite tired of not receiving a response. We have been dealing with supposed maintenance for almost 3 years now. While there are external factors at play, the main issue lies in the incompetence and lack of commitment from the electric company and the country's leadership. No more excuses, just a solution. The morning report has become an excuse for blackouts rather than a solution. Thank you.
I don't know what the improvement is because in Caibarien block C we were without power for 21 hours from 3 in the afternoon on Tuesday until 12 noon on Wednesday if that is an improvement, I really don't understand anything.
What is true about him being disconnected up to Villa Clara
He is disconnected up to Villa Clara.
What the h... is going on with Pinar del Río are we the guinea pigs or are we the cavemen of Cuba
More of the same, whether it's the floating ones, the fuel, a breakdown that needs to be cooled down to identify, the unexpected breakage, and to top it off, those that are in planned repairs and maintenance. Right now in Cruces, Cfgos province, we have been going for 16 continuous hours and surely we are going for more.
.
What happens with the province of Artemisa they took it off at four forty in the morning until five in the afternoon and now they took it off again you cannot see any information and communicate by cell phone is useless this is not easy
What happened with Güira de Melena, they removed it at 4:40 in the morning, put it at four in the afternoon, and now before 7:30 at night they already removed it, they say it's in the province of complete artist, these things are not understood.
I would like to know why, if in the central-eastern area there are more power plants, there are more blackouts, what is done with the oil they announce so much, what is its destination, instead of moving forward we are going backwards more and more.

Not only in Pinar del Río but also here in San Cristóbal, Artemisa province, we have been experiencing a power outage since 8 in the morning.
Hopefully this will improve a little because it is a very complicated situation.
Passenger water supply in Cienfuegos blackouts of more than 20 hours and only 4 with electricity and without water.
Here in Sancti Spiritus, only 2 hours of power and 8 hours of constant blackouts is not easy.

What is being experienced is difficult and they still say that today we will have improvement. Sometimes I think that Lázaro does not suffer from constant power outages because the situation gets worse every day, and they continue with the same daily report that I no longer know if it is from today, yesterday, or a month ago.
If power outages were distributed equitably,
There would be fewer hours of disruption; there are places with more than 20 hours of power outage per day, we have even reached 23 hours.
Since yesterday Tuesday at 4 pm until today Wednesday 4 pm without power, when they talk to me about improvements, it only gets worse.
It is true that the economy in Cuba is not very good. We are still suffering from the unjust blockade imposed by the United States. However, there are friends from other countries who are providing us with help. Russia sent a ship with enough oil for the power plants in Cuba. They also gave Cuba 2 million dollars for the repair of the power plants. Many people are going without food because they do not have gas cylinders to cook.
In Pinar del Río there has been practically no electricity for the past three days.
Good afternoon, I would like to know until what time the blackout in Artemisa will last.
For what reasons in Palacios, Pinar del Río, we have been without power for 26 hours already, since yesterday at two in the afternoon we lost it and still today at 4:38 PM it hasn't appeared.
Don't be so abusive and so dishonest, it's clear that all these rulers have conditions here in this country there is discrimination with the people who can't even eat because they can't cook and they all seem like fat mules that don't even fit their shirts speak the truth well and the little French woman of this one who claims to be very humane to Cuba put some heart into it he hasn't said it anymore because he doesn't have it.
What is happening in P.del Rio, we have been in a total blackout for over 24 hours.
I speak from South Carolina.
Sandino municipality after 27 hours without power they turned it on for 30 minutes today and it's gone again
Because for the East, power outages are more frequent than for the West.
