According to pro-government journalist Lázaro Manuel Alonso, the provinces had to adopt “urgent measures” due to the high deficit tonight.

However, he celebrated that “the fuel ship that will go to distributed generation was paid for.”

“The Vice Minister of Energy and Mines explained to journalist Bernardo Espinosa that the unloading and transfer to the sites has begun. He said that an improvement in the electrical service should be perceived in the next few days,” he wrote on Facebook.

The electrical energy system has suffered damages of more than 1,500 MW, according to calculations based on reports on Telegram from provincial electricity companies.

After having predicted one of the highest deficits in recent weeks, the Electric Union (UNE) reported on Thursday afternoon that the situation has worsened.

“Tonight, the country reports damages exceeding 1,500 MW according to calculations based on Telegram reports from provincial electricity companies, 1,505 reported by the Mayabeque channel,” reported official journalist Lázaro Manuel Alonso from his Facebook profile, accompanying his post with a screenshot of the information provided by the Mayabeque Electric Company through its Telegram channel.

Previously, he had announced that the SEN had an impact of 1,457 MW, when the hour of greatest demand for electricity began in Cuba.

For the nighttime peak hour of September 19, UNE estimated an availability of 1,960 megawatts (MW) and a maximum demand of 3,250 MW, for a deficit of 1,290 MW, so that, if the expected conditions are maintained, there would be an energy deficit of 1,360 MW during this time, which has already been exceeded.

The Cuban government acknowledged on Wednesday that it failed to stabilize the electrical system during the months of July and August, as it had promised, while the island continues to suffer long daily blackouts.
