00:00We will live in Cuba with the creations of authorities of the Electric Union.
00:07Afterwards, we will be able to connect with the rest of the system.
00:13What is important is that after 1 p.m. it advances recovery,
00:18maybe, as you have pointed out, in a safe and slow way,
00:24but to guarantee stability and the optimal functioning of the power grid.
00:33Exactly. It is not a sense of risk because when microsystems are small,
00:40they have some probabilities to face some problem.
00:45But we are taking all measures to minimize risk.
00:51We have seen this morning at the National Dispatch of Cargo
00:56the rigor, the expertise in which workers have been laboring
01:03to assure that the decision to be made of incorporating a machine
01:09be in due time to have the charges that correspond
01:16and to advance in this important moment of reestablishing the national electrical system.
01:23Well, we haven't finished.
01:25We are still working to increase the coverage of electricity
01:30and to be able to connect the national electrical system.
01:36Partner Lazaro has been here at the office alongside the group of experts,
01:42director Feliz, Alfredo, all the team of experts, engineers, women and men
01:51are working 24-7 to try to advance in the recovery of the national electrical system
02:01after the most recent disconnection unplugged.
02:07Pay attention that after 4.30 p.m. the national electrical system was disconnected.
02:17We were listening to statements from the authorities of the electric union
02:21that were reporting on the slow recovery but certain recovery of power across the island
02:26especially in the western region of the country.
02:29The process is slow.
02:31The heads of the electric company was expressing that the process is slow
02:36but it has to be done this way because when you have many microsystems
02:39things are very quick to have a failure in the system and produce a shutdown
02:44and that's why the work is being carried out slowly but certain that recovery is going to be made
02:49and the work continues until finally the national electric system is brought back online.
02:55Those are a brief summary of what is currently happening in Cuba.
02:58Work continues. Stay tuned with Terrestrial English for more updated information.
