The power outages in Ecuador, scheduled by the government since September 23, could extend for two more months, according to statements by the Minister of Energy, Inés Manzano.

The rationing of electricity will be, according to the minister, until the end of November “and until the end of December the blackouts are intended to be minimal,” added Manzano.

According to the government, they are working to reduce the power outages next month, but the weather conditions cannot be predicted in an exact way. The rains and any climate change will affect any projection.

Manzano has promised, however, that by the last days of November citizens will have electricity and suspensions will be reduced.

In opposition to this optimistic stance, the minister indicated that “the blackouts cannot continue until March” according to a report by the Electric Corporation of Ecuador (CELEC) which is responsible for making known the risks of the sector.

Given the crisis in the electrical sector, which keeps the country with permanent power cuts, the Ministry of Electrical Energy of Venezuela indicated that all cryptocurrency mining farms, which demand high consumption, will be disconnected.

The ministry tries, with this measure, to control demand and solve the power outages that continue especially in the interior of the country, affecting the normal development of the population and the national productive system.

The announcement was made on Friday, May 17, by the Ministry of Electric Energy (MPPPE), “which began a control plan for high energy consumption users linked to this activity.”

“The purpose is to disconnect all cryptocurrency mining farms in the country from the SEN, avoiding the high impact on demand, which allows us to continue offering an efficient and reliable service to all the Venezuelan people,” the MPPPE reported on Instagram.

This announcement was made after 2,000 cryptocurrency mining machines were seized in Maracay, Aragua state, on Thursday the 16th.
