Power Generation Loss in Spain's Blackout Started in Granada, Badajoz, Seville
An abrupt power generation loss that led to a massive grid disruption and blackout in Spain and Portugal on April 28 started in the southern areas of Spain around Granada, Badajoz and Seville, Energy Minister Sara Aagesen said on Wednesday. Several investigations involving government, security agencies and technical experts are looking into the unprecedented power outage, but it is the first time Spanish authorities point to specific areas as the origin of the events. "We are analyzing millions of data ... But there are already elements that we know," Aagesen told lawmakers, adding that investigators had ruled out supply and demand imbalance and insufficient grid capacity as causes. "We also continue to make progress in identifying where these generation losses occurred and we already know that they started in Granada, Badajoz and Seville," she said.
