El problema es la sequ\u00eda: las hidroel\u00e9ctricas gastan las reservas de los embalses sin poder reponer agua. El embalse de Mazar, un term\u00f3metro clave, ha bajado 16 metros desde diciembre (de 2.153 a 2.137 msnm).<br><br>El r\u00edo Paute, que alimenta las principales centrales, lleva solo 58 m\u00b3\/s este jueves, frente a un caudal normal de 300 m\u00b3\/s. Pese a esto, la ministra de Energ\u00eda, In\u00e9s Manzano, es optimista: \u201cNo hay ning\u00fan riesgo de apag\u00f3n. 2024 no hab\u00eda lluvias ni energ\u00eda; 2026 no hay lluvias, pero hay energ\u00eda\u201d.<br><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La crisis el\u00e9ctrica se agrava por dos factores: el calor extremo en la Costa y la sequ\u00eda.
