WorldCuba pushes ahead with renewable energy plans amid US oil blockade

Cuban Energy Minister Vicente de la O Levy says the de facto US oil blockade is driving the country to seek domestic alternatives, including solar power; 144 solar farms with about 1,418 megawatts of combined capacity have been installed in recent years. He denied the government was linked to fuel shipments seized by US authorities and said US oil deliveries to private firms cover far less than Cuba’s needs.
