Two turbines at Venezuela’s Guri dam, the country’s largest hydroelectric plant, were shut down this week, which may reduce generation by more than 1,000 megawatts, El Universal reported.

A 730-megawatt unit was shut because of vibration problems and a 375-megawatt turbine was taken offline for tests, the Caracas-based newspaper reported today, without identifying where it got the information.
