Puerto Rico Recovers from Island-Wide Blackout

A significant power outage plunged Puerto Rico into darkness earlier this week, affecting over 1.45 million residents.

The island-wide blackout, caused by a transmission line failure, triggered a cascading shutdown of generators across the island.

Despite the widespread disruption, power was quickly restored to the vast majority of customers within 48 hours.

While investigations continue into the precise cause, officials are focusing on preventing similar large-scale outages in the future.
