Cuba’s National Electric System is at a crossroads. The U.S. blockade has severely limited the island’s access to fuel, spare parts, and financing, crippling its energy infrastructure. In the face of these challenges, Cuba is undertaking the complex task of transforming its energy matrix to expand renewable energy, modernize the grid, and ensure reliable power for all.

Join us for a special videoconference with leading experts from Cuba’s Ministry of Energy and Mines (MINEM) to learn about the country’s plans, challenges, and achievements in renewable energy and efficiency.
