Ecuador power outages: Guayaquil homes 24h+, businesses 48h disconnections

Prolonged power outages hit Guayaquil homes and medium-voltage businesses across El Oro, Quito, and Los Ríos, with disconnections exceeding 24-48 hours. This indicates a deepening electricity supply crisis in Ecuador, likely due to generation shortfalls or grid failures. The economic impact on businesses and public discontent may escalate, pressuring the government to address energy security.
