Millions Left in Darkness Across CubaCuba’s worsening electricity crisis has raised fresh concerns over the resilience of the island’s ageing power network after the national grid suffered its third nationwide collapse in less than 10 days, leaving millions without electricity during the height of summer. The latest outage is the fifth nationwide blackout recorded this year, underscoring the severity of the country’s energy emergency. “The backbone of the system is still the big power plants,” said Jorge Piñon, an energy researcher at the University of Texas. The energy crisis has added to Cuba’s broader economic difficulties, which include high inflation, shortages of essential goods and a continuing exodus of citizens seeking opportunities abroad. #Cuba #Blackout #Caribbean #EnergyCrisis #Havana #Electricity #PowerGrid #CaribbeanNews #BreakingNews #Infrastructure
