Energy Minister Ximena Rincón stated that the supply of gas from Argentina to the Ñuble and Biobío regions will be restored during Saturday after a suspension due to failure to meet Chilean standards. The cut occurred on Thursday and did not affect residential supply. The industrial sector had backups to continue operating.
High residential demand from the cold wave has led to gas supply cuts of up to 50% for companies with firm contracts and GNC stations.
