In that sense, it assured that new repowering and network rehabilitation works are planned for the next stage of strengthening the electrical system.\n\nEdeeste also called on customers to report breakdowns in a timely manner, as these notices constitute the main alert that activates the mobilization of its technical brigades. &#8220;When the community does not report, the response time is prolonged, which generates greater discomfort and stress in the population,&#8221; said the distributor.\n\nHe also urged users to make rational use of energy, reminding them that efficiency in consumption not only helps preserve the stability of the system, but also represents relief on the electricity bill. Among the recommendations are reducing consumption during peak hours and eliminating illegal connections.\n\nThe company reiterated its commitment to transparency and closeness to citizens, ensuring that it is working hard to mitigate the effects of the current situation and confident that in the coming days the availability of energy will stabilize, thus reducing interruptions.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"520273\" src=\"https:\/\/ab.deultimominuto.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-08-21-at-1.52.10-PM-2-1024x638.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-520273\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"520274\" src=\"https:\/\/ab.deultimominuto.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-08-21-at-1.52.10-PM-1-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-520274\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"520275\" src=\"https:\/\/ab.deultimominuto.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-08-21-at-1.52.10-PM-1024x461.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-520275\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Santo Domingo Este. \u2013 The Eastern Electricity Distribution Company (Edeeste) reported that it has intensified its outreach to the communities in its concession area, through meetings led by its Social Management staff and specialized technicians, in order to listen to users and offer clear explanations about the causes of power outages.
