The administrator of the Corporación Dominicana de Electricidad said that there has been an increase in the supply of energy. The Los Minas VI power plant is back on line, contributing 100 megawatts. No one is getting excited about this, despite engineer Temístocles Montás optimism. He said the operation of the plant translates only into a decrease in the blackout hours suffered by the population. Montás said the Los Minas V will also go on line soon, as repairs are completed. Major power plants are due for maintenance works once the two Los Minas turbogas generators, which are expected to supply upwards of 185 megawatts between the two, enter the system.
