💨 Abstract

A widespread blackout in Puerto Rico affected nearly half of the homes and businesses on Thursday, with hospitals, airports, and prisons among the structures still without power. Luma Energy, the island's main utility, expects to restore power to 90% of customers within the next 48 hours. The blackout is believed to have been caused by a protection system failure and the presence of vegetation on a transmission line.
