Ecuador suspends electricity rationing as rains return, ending a drought affecting hydroelectric plants.
Ecuador has suspended electricity rationing as rains return, following a drought that started in mid-April. 92% of Ecuador's electricity comes from hydroelectric plants, and the rationing was in place due to dams feeding hydropower plants running dry. Neighboring Colombia also resumed energy exports after supplementing its power generation with thermoelectric plants and experiencing additional relief from rains.
