In an attempt to motivate citizens to pay their electricity bills, the State-run Electric Companies (CDEEE) admits that energy distributors are resorting to turning off entire power circuits. The CDEEE denies that outages are due to problems in the system. CDEEE vice president Radhames Segura says that only 22 of the country's 530 circuits were out of operation yesterday and that service has improved substantially. He said that coverage was 85%, with a 1,605-megawatt demand, and supply of 1,443 megawatts of 86.93%.
