The government ordered the suspension of the power cut due to the change of command, so this Wednesday, November 22 and Thursday, November 23, 2023, the service will be normal, but what will happen on Friday when the new president Daniel Noboa Azín is already in power?

After that interruption, the exclusions will continue on November 24 or it will be the decision of the new government that will take office this Thursday. The two options were consulted this afternoon with the outgoing energy minister, Fernando Santos, who said they “will continue because the Cenaca provision is given to distributors and in force until a balance between production and consumption is reached.”

The government suspends power cuts for five days, the production of hydroelectric power plants is at 67%, and thermal power plants at 33%

Ecuador’s electricity curtailment began on October 27, 2023 and has since been suspended for several days, depending on the availability of generation during this dry season. There were no cuts during the vacation in early November and now for the inauguration of the new president.

Meanwhile, in Carondelet, the government of Guillermo Lasso signed a concession for eight electrical projects.
