Both Hoy and the Listin Diario report extensive blackouts throughout the country. Power outages lasting up to 24 hours were reported in Villa Consuelo, Villa Juana and Ensanche La Fe, as well as most other neighborhoods of Santo Domingo. The Cibao was especially hard hit, and in Santiago over half of the city was left in the dark for over 36 hours, according to Hoy. Lack of fuel was the main reason cited for the poor service and the generation deficit was estimated to be slightly over 700 megawatts. A slight improvement is expected today, when two smaller generators enter into service.
