Havana power outages: utility reports supply restored on five circuits
Empresa Eléctrica de La Habana reported that power was restored on five distribution circuits from 03:39 local time on 11 November. An earlier report from the utility said a generation deficit was affecting 132 circuits at 03:10. The later notice named only the circuits where it was confirming restoration.

The utility warned that individual connection or transformer faults could still affect supply.
What the early Havana outage figures describe
The Havana utility attributed the interruptions recorded at 03:10 to a generation deficit. It reported 305 MW affected across the 132 circuits at that point. Megawatts measure power. That figure and the circuit count cannot tell a resident how many homes lost electricity or whether their own address was affected.
The utility listed the five circuits named in the later restoration notice among its longest affected at the time of the first report. It recorded 13 hours and 09 minutes for those circuits at 03:10. That was the duration given at the snapshot; the reports do not establish an exact outage start time for Havana.
What the sources tell us, and what they do not
- Reported impact at 03:10 local time
- 305 MW affected across 132 circuits, according to the utility.
- Circuits named in the restoration notice
- CPP8, CPP9, CPP10, CPP17 and CPP20.
Which circuits were restored?
The utility’s later notice identified CPP8, CPP9, CPP10, CPP17 and CPP20 as restored from 03:39 local time. It gave no new citywide count. A circuit can be back in service while an individual connection or a transformer fault still leaves some addresses without power, a possibility the utility flagged in the same notice.
How to check supply at an address
Look for a newer notice naming your circuit or check directly with the electricity utility if supply has not returned. Keep the time of any update handy when comparing it with a later bulletin. If you rely on a battery for lights or communications, the runtime calculator can help estimate how long it will last. The power outage essentials guide covers other ways to prepare.
