Despite efforts, Guant\u00e1namo has struggled to mitigate the ongoing outages affecting its circuits.<\/p>\n<p>D\u00edaz Cantillo noted that the company tracks outage durations daily and adjusts supply based on available generation, but current conditions prevent them from ensuring service restoration in under 20 hours.<\/p>\n<p>He also highlighted the complications caused by grid overload when power is restored, as simultaneous reconnections can lead to malfunctions. To improve the situation, he mentioned the development of energy storage systems to support solar production, as the province&#8217;s solar parks currently utilize only a fraction of their capacity due to system instability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Guant\u00e1namo.- Joaqu\u00edn D\u00edaz Cantillo, the director of the Guant\u00e1namo Electric Company, reported that the province experienced power outages lasting up to 24 hours due to a nationwide electricity generation deficit.
