Las
Tunas .-
As part
of the
investment
program
running
in Cuba
in order
to
improve
the
quality
of life
of the
population,
to
increase
energy
savings,
and to
substitute
imports,
the
employees
of the
Electric
Company
in Las
Tunas
province
prioritize
the
elimination
of
faulty
networks,
known as
illegal
lines,
in 14
communities
of the
northern
municipality
of
Puerto
Padre,
located
about 50
kilometers
north of
this
city and
740 east
of
Havana.
|
The
150
clients
of the
National
Electrical
Union (UNE)
in Las
Tunas
province
have not
reduced
the
energy
consumption
by five
percent,
as the
country
has
stablished
this
year.
|
|
The
project
includes
the
installation
of
transformers
and new
lines
and
counters,
and this
year it
could
cover
another
33
districts
of that
town and
and the
neighboring
municipality
of Jesus
Menendez,
which
would
favor
hundreds
of
families
who now
receive
a
defective
service,
largely
subsidized
by the
Cuban
government,
despite
the
global
economic
crisis,
high
fuel
prices
and the
adverse
consequences
of the
U.S.
blockade
against
Cuba.
According
to
engineer
Manuel
Aloma,
deputy
director
of the
Electric
Company
in the
eastern
territory,
the
investment
is
humming
along,
and
apparently
the
program
will
conclude
on
schedule
and with
the
required
quality.
According
to data
provided
by
engineer
Richard
Arias,
head of
the team
that in
the
mentioned
state
company
controls
the
rational
use of
energy,
the
families
in Las
Tunas
continue
with
overdraw
in the
electricity
consumption,
among
other
reasons
for lack
of a
strong
culture
in this
matter
but also
because
in
recent
years
the
Cuban
Revolution
sold
millions
of
appliances
that,
although
they
cause
more
spending,
enhance
the
quality
of life
of the
people.
At a
press
conference
with
accredited
journalists,
the
directors
of the
Electric
Company
of Las
Tunas
province
stated
that in
the
recently
concluded
sugar
harvest
in the
territory,
that
industry
did not
provide
the
necessary
electricity
to the
National
Electric
System (SEN),
except
the
central
southern
sugar
mill
Amancio
Rodriguez,
whose
workers
were
able to
fulfill
their
plan all
the
time.
