The day after the historical power outage, the energy supply in Spain and Portugal is restored almost everywhere. But the blackout, who cut millions of people from the outside world and caused chaos, still leaves uncertainty.
“Now we all breathe up again, but the big question is: can this happen again? And what if something like that will take longer in the future?” Said in a morning valley of the Spanish TV station RTVE of the state. A doctor from Madrid spoke in the Cadena Ser radio station from a scary trip “to the Stone Age”.
As reported, public life on Monday in Spain and Portugal almost came to a halt. People were stuck in lifts, subways and trains. For example, a young filmmaker had to endure for ten hours in the standing High -Speed train on the way from Madrid to Barcelona – with around 500 other passengers. “I was surprised at how calm everyone stayed. In the end the hidden air and the heat were unbearable. It was like in the sauna,” he said.
Great looting failed
“We have never experienced anything like that,” said Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. He praised the citizens for their exemplary behavior. Although it was a stick in many places, there were no significant incidents such as raids and looting.
About 24 hours after the Black -out, almost all people in Spain and Portugal had electricity again. In Catalonia there were initially problems with local trains. The exact causes are still unclear. The Spanish network operator Red Eléctrica announced that the study had no cyber attack. A disconnection of the power connection was discovered. Why this happened was initially unclear on Tuesday.
The governments in Madrid and Lisbon invited crisis meetings. “That should never happen again,” said Sánchez. He would hold the private suppliers responsible.
