Havana, December 5 (RHC)-- The National Electric System (SEN) is working today with all its equipment available, according to a notice from the Minister of Energy and Mines of Cuba, Vicente de la O Levy.

"The SEN has been restored," he wrote on the social network X shortly before concluding this Wednesday night.   All the units that were in the process of starting up entered the system, he assured.

De la O Levy clarified that "unit 1 of Felton, which already has a boiler on and will synchronize in the next few hours" has yet to be incorporated into the generation of electric energy.

The day before, at the beginning of the morning, there was a new disconnection of the System, after the Antonio Guiteras thermoelectric plant went out due to an automatic trip, as reported by the Ministry of Energy and Mines.

During the day, work to rehabilitate it progressed and before nightfall, the Santa Cruz 1, Guiteras and Felton units were ready to start up, with 400 megawatts more than those existing until then.

Likewise, the provinces of Pinar del Río and Holguín had been incorporated into the SEN, always according to official reports.

The SEN has suffered significant damage in recent months, including service outages, causing prolonged blackouts throughout the island.

Cuban authorities denounce the consequences in the sector of the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States on the Caribbean country for more than six decades, a policy that has been intensified in recent years. (Source: Prensa Latina)
