No electricity, so no heating, no possibility to cook – a blackout would completely change the habits of private households. At the latest, Defense Secretary Klaudia Tanner’s announcement (“The question is not if he comes, but when he comes”) prompted the “Krone” to conduct a self-test. That’s how much it costs to prepare for the blackout.
A blackout is on everyone’s lips, especially since the beginning of the Russian offensive war. Until now, however, the people’s representatives have rarely been so clear when Defense Secretary Tanner spoke of an unplanned, prolonged blackout: “We have to prepare for a blackout in Austria and in Europe.”
In the self-experiment it was therefore necessary to investigate what should not be missing in the event of a power failure in one’s own household. And above all: how much does the preparation for it cost?
