Cuban Government's Renewable Energy Plans Face Challenges Amid Fuel Shortages
Cuba is experiencing significant energy challenges, leading many residents to turn to alternative sources like solar power and charcoal for cooking. The Cuban government has announced plans to transition to renewable energy over the next 24 years, aiming for greater energy sovereignty. However, achieving 100% renewable energy by 2050 appears unlikely without substantial investments. The current energy crisis has forced residents like Lisbet Reyes to use charcoal, which is both time-consuming and poses health risks due to smoke inhalation. The cost of charcoal is also burdensome, given the low average salaries in Cuba.
