Cuba had restored power to nearly half of the capital Havana by Sunday afternoon, officials said, less than 24 hours after the national grid collapsed for the second time in a week. The grid failed on March 21 after a major power plant in Nuevitas, in eastern Cuba's Camaguey province, went offline, causing a cascade effect that knocked out power to the nation's approximately 10 million people. #Cuba #electricity #poweroutage
