A free, solar-powered charging station, or “solinera” as it’s known, has opened in Santa Clara, in Cuba’s central region. It has become a lifeline for people on an island plagued by chronic blackouts and a severe gas shortage stemming from a U.S. energy blockade. (AP Video: Ariel Fernández and Milexsy Durán)
