State-owned Electricity Companies (CDEEE) vice president Celso Marranzini says that the DR's energy problems are "disappearing" and that the lights would be on during the holiday season. Quoted in Hoy, Marranzini said, "The problems are already disappearing, because short-term measures are being taken which are improving the system."
