Ten blocks will share nighttime electricity service in Villa Clara

The Villa Clara Electric Company will begin rotating electricity service during the early-morning hours on November 5. The plan divides the province into ten blocks and organizes supply by shifts, with a planned six-hour period for the circuits assigned to each window. Operation remains subject to available generating capacity, a condition attached to the announced schedule.

The distribution is designed to organize demand between midnight and 6 a.m. The planned shifts for the ten blocks will take place during that window so each group receives service when its turn arrives in the cycle. The plan establishes the same nighttime period across the province and assigns electricity according to the circuits included in each shift.

The system calls for the rotation to occur every ten days. That frequency organizes the sequence of shifts and accompanies the division into blocks; the assigned period for each circuit remains six hours within the established window. Coverage applies to the circuits or municipalities scheduled to receive service on the corresponding date.

The Electric Company said scheduled hours that are not fulfilled will not be restored later. The rule concerns service time that cannot be provided during the assigned shift. The planned duration and actual delivery are therefore not equivalent: the schedule reserves six hours, but generating availability determines whether supply can be provided throughout that period.

The calendar identifies the block assigned to each circuit and the window in which it is expected to receive electricity. The announced duration is six hours, and implementation depends on available generation. The company will start the rotation November 5, with shifts organized in ten-day cycles and no later replacement of hours that are not provided.
