Technical FAQs 4

Will Cuba get more solar energy by 2030?

By 2030, the country aims to generate more than a third of its electricity from solar parks and other renewable sources. Cuba on Friday unveiled a new solar energy park in the capital Havana, part of an ambitious project to alleviate the communist island's increasingly desperate struggle with power blackouts.

How many solar panels are there in Cuba?

This greatly underdeveloped energy source is slowly making its way across the island: there are currently more than 6,000 photovoltaic panels and 1,500 solar heaters in use. The installed solar energy generating capacity in Cuba is around 3 megawatts, or 0.07 % of the total installed capacity.

Can Cubans buy solar panels?

The passage of Decree-Law 345 in 2019 permits Cubans to purchase photovoltaic solar panels for private use and to sell surplus energy to state company Unión Eléctrica. : 159 In 2022, about 1.5% of electricity came from solar power.

Why is Cuba struggling to pay for electricity?

Under a US trade embargo since the 1960s and battling its worse economic crisis in decades, the country also uses floating electric plants rented from Turkish companies, and generators fueled by crude oil Cuba is struggling to pay for.
