Who's to blame for Puerto Rico's power crisis? 'Coordination failures' and the complex relationship between the 2 entities in charge of providing power are at the heart of the problem, a nonpartisan analysis found.
But since the company started working in Puerto Rico, residents have experienced longer service restoration times, poor customer service and voltage fluctuations that often damage appliances and other home electronics, according to an, a nonprofit group that conducts research and analyses on financial and economic issues related to energy and the environment.
In his analysis, Marxuach pointed out that Luma Energy had about a year to prepare before its takeover,"and its performance so far has been, in the best case, deficient, and in the worst, dismal."'In the best interests of both companies to change their ways' Under the current partnership, the power authority is"required to provide 'dependable generation capacity' in exchange for a monthly payment from LUMA to cover operating and maintenance expenses," the analysis said. The private company also has"absolute control to dispatch generation and manage system load at any given time," according to the report.
"It is in the best interests of both companies to change their ways, for their own benefit and the wellbeing of the Puerto Rican people," the analysis concluded. In it, Marxuach urged the power authority to stop"clinging to its old ways" and called on Luma Energy to"modify its standard playbook to account for an old, unstable, and unreliable electric system."
