Work on the Red Eléctrica project is suspended. This project aims to strengthen the connection between Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. The project has been stopped for 10 years. The cause is conflicts between administrations and landowners. This is especially relevant in the municipality of Yaiza.
Consejer Mariano Hernández Zapata stated that these delays increase the risk of power shortages. Last week, it was necessary to temporarily stop a desalination plant. This action prevented power outages on the islands.
