Cuba's state-run media has hailed the synchronization of the El Algarrobo photovoltaic park in Guantánamo as a national triumph, following the unexpected withdrawal of foreign investors involved in the project. The Cuban News Agency (ACN) reported this as the first instance where a solar park has been synchronized entirely with Cuban expertise. However, the official announcement touts the park's synchronization while some inverters remain unconnected and parameters need fine-tuning for efficient operation. It is the province's second solar park and is expected to have a capacity of 21.8 megawatts peak. The promotion of the solar park contrasts sharply with the severity of the region's energy crisis.
