The city of Buenos Aires carries out operations for residents with power outages
In the midst of high temperatures and power outages, the City of Buenos Aires carries out special assistance operations in the affected areas through the water delivery and installing generator sets in buildings to fill tanks or charge cell phones: As soon as you give light to one building, you go to another.
From the Buenos Aires government they assured that all the equipment is in operation and also assists special cases such as geriatrics. These operations are dynamic and responses are given based on requests in blocks of Flores Norte and Sur, Caballito Norte and Sur, and Parque Chacabuco.
Furthermore, they stated that there had been, until now, 47 requests for assistance through lines 103 and 111 in which the Single Coordination and Control Center (CUCC) intervened: there were requests for generating sets for electrodependents, the rescue of people who had been left inside elevators (solved by the Firefighters), the filling of tanks in buildings, and in geriatric establishments.
In that sense, you have a survey by the team of the Ministry of Government and Citizen Link to the people registered as electrodependentit is checked that they have electricity and that they have enough battery in their medical support equipment.
Within this framework, the ENRE and the distribution companies made information available to make claims and request assistance.

Tips to save energy and avoid power outages
energy companies Edesur and Edenor provided a series of recommendations to make “intelligent use” of energy and thus Avoid stressing the electrical system on days of extreme temperatures:
1) If you use air, set it to 24° for a more balanced consumption and alternate it with a fan that consumes up to 12 times less.
2) Close doors and windows to prevent outside air from entering the air-conditioned environment.
3) The use of curtains, eaves or awnings on the windows helps reduce energy expenditure to air condition an environment.
4) Keep only the rooms in use heated.
5) Periodically clean the air conditioning filters to avoid energy loss.
Lightning
1) Turn off lights that are not used.
2) Use LED lamps. These types of lamps last 7 times longer than halogen lamps and consume 8 times less energy.
3) Adapt the lighting to the needs of each environment and give preference to focused lighting instead of illuminating the entire environment.
Electronics
1) Disconnect those devices that have the “Stand By” function. It is estimated that up to 15% of household energy consumption can be produced by this function.
2) When you are not going to use the computer, for short periods you can turn off only the screen. This will save energy and, when you turn it on again, you will not have to wait for the computer to restart. The monitor is the component that consumes the most electrical energy.
White Line
1) Check that the weather stripping on the refrigerator doors is in good condition. If they are broken it is better to change them in order to avoid cold losses.
2) I opened the refrigerator only when necessary. Every time it is opened it loses cold, and to recover it an extra expenditure of energy is generated. Door openings represent between 5% and 10% of the refrigerator’s total consumption.
3) Avoid using the washing machine or iron during times of greatest energy demand (between 12 and 6 p.m., and between 8 and 11 p.m. specifically).
4) Make the most of the washing machine’s load capacity with short washing cycles.
5) Use the iron from the moment you connect it to the electrical network and disconnect it before finishing, so you can take advantage of the remaining heat.
Kitchen
1) The microwave is a large consumer of energy: by generating heat at high temperatures, in a short period, it consumes the equivalent of three small electric burners.
2) Avoid using the microwave to defrost food: it is better to remove it from the refrigerator first.
3) It is not necessary to preheat the electric oven for cooking longer than one hour.
4) Take advantage of the residual heat of the electric oven, turning it off about five minutes before finishing cooking.
5) Do not open the electric oven unnecessarily to check the food. Every time it is opened it loses about 20% of the heat, and to recover it an extra expenditure of energy is generated.
6) Don’t forget to cover the pots when cooking on electric stoves: cooking will be faster and you will save up to 25% energy.
