Cuba is offsetting power blackouts and shortages worsened by Donald Trump’s near-total oil blockade with the help of soaring imports of solar technology from China.

Beijing supplied 1 gigawatt of photovoltaic panels to the communist island last year and has promised more support as Cuba seeks to generate 15 per cent of its power from renewables in 2026, according to its new economic and social plan."

(UK is making about 7GW from solar just now, 25% of demand)

Got very near today, solar hit 14GW and wind reached 10GW.

The continental interconnects were also doing well, presumably getting similar conditions.
