Cuba’s aging #grid has drastically eroded in recent years, leading to daily outages & an increase in significant #blackouts.

The government blames its woes on a #US #energy #blockade after #Trump in January warned of #tariffs on any country that sells or provides #oil to #Cuba.

[so Trump impedes their ability to provide #electricity & them blames them for not providing electricity. That’s called a setup for failure.]

Technically, it’s still #winter though it’s in its death throes and yet, even in the #UK, currently about 30% of the #Electricity being generated is from #SolarEnergy. #WindEnergy is at about 50% and so less that 10% needs to come from #Gas.

Absolutely unbelievable that you only get the EEG feed-in tariff as a private person for the energy that you feed into the system and it is not even relative to the spot price, it is fixed at 7 cent :(

Yeah ... with something like this the EU electricity sector will never become resilient and renewable.

Let private people participate in storing and feeding in electricity ffs!
