How many solar parks will Cuba build by 2025?

The Cuban government’s plan is to install 55 solar parks similar to the one in Cotorro by 2025. The total capacity will be 1,200 MW. These are part of a broader project running until 2028, which aims to build 92 parks, with the goal of adding more than 2,000 MW to the National Electro-Energy System.

What is the energy situation in Cuba?

The energy situation in Cuba is critical. The Cuban electrical system has suffered for years due to a lack of investment, aging infrastructure, and difficulties in obtaining fuel. First published in Spanish by El Toque and translated and posted in English by Havana Times.

What is the first solar photovoltaic park in Havana?

HAVANA TIMES – On February 21, 2025, the first solar photovoltaic park was inaugurated, with a capacity of 21.8 MW. The project, located in Cotorro—on the outskirts of Havana—is part of the island’s government’s bet on solar energy to address the country’s dire electricity situation.

What happened in Cuba in February 2025?

In February 2025, just before the inauguration of the Cotorro solar park, the country experienced blackouts that affected more than 56% of the island at once, forcing authorities to suspend classes and work activities. The energy situation in Cuba is critical.
