Luma Energy's recent systemwide blackout in Puerto Rico has left 86% of its utility customers powerless, underscoring ongoing issues in the island's energy infrastructure.
The executive director of the Puerto Rico chamber of commerce indicated that power restoration may extend over several days, a significant concern for local businesses and residents.
Governor Pedro Pierluisi emphasized the need for transparency from power companies, demanding they expedite the restart of generating units and keep the public informed.
The blackout, affecting nearly all of Puerto Rico, was described as larger than previous outages since Hurricane Maria damaged the island's power grid, indicating a continuing crisis.
