Cuba bergelap lagi

Cuba experienced widespread power outages throughout July, with a major outage occurring on August 2, according to both the Cuban government and international media reports. The latest outage on Friday saw the country's national grid fail completely. This came after prolonged electricity shortages in Havana and other regions, with some areas reportedly experiencing outages of more than 30 hours over the past few weeks.

The Cuban power system has been strained by aging infrastructure, fuel shortages, and difficulties in maintaining generation capacity. The Ministry of Energy and Mines previously linked the power outages to a combination of aging infrastructure, fuel shortages, and problems within the electric generation system. Renewable energy sources could help increase generation capacity, but aging infrastructure remains a key component of Cuba's power system.

The Cuban government blames stringent measures and sanctions imposed by the United States for limiting fuel supply as a contributing factor to the energy crisis, while Washington attributes the issue to the country's economic and infrastructure challenges.
