Dr. Martinez: Thank you for having me. Yes, Epec has stated that these outages are primarily for maintenance tasks and improvements to the electrical infrastructure. This is crucial for ensuring a more efficient and safer energy service for users in the province.
Editor: That’s understandable. Scheduled maintenance is necessary, but it can still be inconvenient. Can you elaborate on the specific areas affected and the duration of these outages?

For example, in Villa María, there will be cuts from 7:00 AM to 8:00 AM as well as throughout the day for further technology updates at transformer substations. Other areas like Jardín Espinoza and Jockey Club will also experience interruptions, especially between 8:00 AM and 11:30 AM for aerial grid maintenance.

Dr. Martinez: Epec is focused on modernizing their electrical infrastructure. This type of work is essential not only for current service improvements but also to prepare for future demand.Upgrading technology in transformer substations, as a notable example, can improve efficiency and reduce the risk of unplanned outages in the future.
