A majority of the island's residents were plunged into darkness after a fire erupted at a power plant.
"We are stabilizing the generating units to avoid damage to them. Once LUMA Energy restores the 230kv and 115kv transmission network, we will begin the unit start-up process to restore the system little by little. This process will take about 12 hours."
"I urge all our people to remain calm and to be aware of the information updates provided by the agencies in charge and LUMA," he tweeted. López later tweeted that the Mayagüez Medical Center was having problems with one of its generators."The ventilators have a battery and backups that allow continuity for patients," he wrote.
