Cubans search for alternative energy sources amid fuel shortages and outages. Renewables provide 10% of energy, up from only 3% by 2024. Officials in Cuba claim that renewables are expected to cover 40% of energy demand by 2035 and 100% by 2050. With Chinese equipment and financing, the government installed solar panels at public places and hospitals in the past few years. Cuban officials have stated that 54 solar parks exist today, and they expect to have 92 in 2028 with the help of China. The Cuban Government has not provided a breakdown as to how it plans to use energy sources like solar, hydropower, biomass, and wind in order for the country’s goal. Jorge Pinon, a University of Texas at Austin energy expert, believes it will be difficult for Cuba’s government to achieve its goals, given the economic crisis in the country and the high costs of switching to renewable energy sources, particularly due to the state of the energy infrastructure.

Pinon, a senior researcher at UT Austin’s Energy Institute, said that there is potential to harness renewable energy but it will require large investments. Sugar cane energy, for example, could be just as important as solar. Pinon explained that ethanol is not only a fuel, but also a biomass product, an alcohol, and a source of employment for the countryside. You can blend ethanol with gasoline and reduce your gasoline imports. The Cuban Embassy did not reply to questions about the details of the energy plan, or whether the switch to renewables by 2050 is possible. Most Cubans are currently living with the problem of not being able to get electricity on a regular basis. Before the Trump administration made its visit to the island, the people were already suffering from power cuts lasting up to 20 hours a day. Fuel supply was reduced by
