		</div><p>Argentina’s main energy company has said it is “slowly beginning to restore” electricity after a massive power failure left large swathes of the South American country and neighbouring Uruguay in the dark.</p>
<p>It was unclear how many people had been affected by the blackout, but the nations have a combined population of more than 45 million.</p>

<p>Writing on Twitter, Edesur said power had been returned to 34,000 customers as of Sunday morning.</p>

<p>The company said: “The return of electricity generation to the interconnected system of the Federal Capital and Greater Buenos Aires has begun.”</p>

<p>It noted the process would take several hours.</p>
<p>Uruguayan energy company UTE tweeted that the system was being reinstated from scratch.</p>
<p>“There are already coastal cities with service and work continues toward general restoration,” it said.</p>

<p>It added that the blackout was due to a “flaw in the Argentine network” which left the entire country and several regions of Uruguay without electricity.</p>
<p>Argentina’s energy secretary said the blackout happened around 7am local time, when a key interconnection system collapsed.</p>
