The independent CENACE Monitor preserves official CENACE snapshots every 30 minutes and turns a momentary government display into understandable history, comparisons and downloadable data. That careful open-source work makes this page's on-demand grid update possible. We are grateful to its creator, Pablo Jiménez. CENACE remains the authoritative underlying source.

Hidro Info Bot has made Ecuador's hydroelectric situation easier for the public to follow by collecting and explaining information that is otherwise scattered and difficult to read. We appreciate the time and public-service spirit behind that work. It is an independent monitor, not an official CELEC or CENACE source.

The displayed Mazar elevation, inflow and 24-hour change use CELEC SUR's official hydrology measurements. The site checks hourly in the background and, if needed, when the page is opened. It keeps the last valid observation if CELEC has not published a newer usable reading. Elevation is not the same as percent full; conversion requires the reservoir's storage curve. The operational elevation range shown is 2,098–2,153 metres.

Windy's rain layer is a model forecast. Satellite imagery observes clouds. INAMHI stations observe conditions at specific points. Ecuador does not have a public nationwide real-time weather-radar composite, so the page does not label any of these as national live radar.

This brief tracks official load-shedding schedules, national-grid emergencies, citywide or multi-community outages, and major transmission or substation failures. It does not attempt to log individual homes, routine feeder faults or brief neighborhood interruptions.
