Cuba in the Dark: The Power Crisis Explained

Waking up to a world without electricity. That's what happened recently in Cuba when a massive power plant called Antonio Guiteras suddenly stopped working. This left millions of people in the dark for two whole days. Why did this happen? Officials say it's because of the high demand for air conditioners and the need to fix old power plants. They blame money troubles and fuel shortages for the problem.The government is rushing to solve the issue, but more blackouts could cause protests, like the ones we've seen recently. To make matters worse, most of Cuba's power comes from large plants that use crude oil, which is hard to get and expensive due to U. S. sanctions. So, what's the plan? Cuba might start using more solar power. The President promised not to rest until the lights are back on!
