Severe weather has exposed the fragility of the electrical infrastructure, but chronic power outages primarily stem from overloaded transformers. While the company acknowledges slow progress in upgrading the networks, the continued reliance on unprotected overhead lines remains a critical issue in vulnerable areas. High temperatures exacerbate these technical failures, causing cables to overheat and fail even in the absence of storms. Although most transformers operate normally, a significant portion lacks the necessary reinforcement to handle peak demand, leaving peripheral areas with inadequate protection. This situation underscores the urgent need for transparent, real-time data on grid capacity and maintenance schedules. Open data initiatives are essential to monitor infrastructure health, enabling communities and authorities to track progress and demand accountability for the reliability of essential services.
