Tuesday Emergency Throughout Spain and Portugal, Except for Extremadura and Madrid in Level 3. They have returned to Andalusia, Castilla-La Manjha, Valencian community, Calicia, Mursia and La Rioja-Level 2.
In the meantime, the iBerian Peninsula begins to restore the power supply Unprecedented blackout Monday. An area of power cutting victim, Portugal and France According to data on European Electric Transport Networks (ENTSO-E) after Monday.
Don Jorkenson, European Union Energy and Home Authority “Europe has been very serious for almost two decades”.
Researchers They try to find the cause Experts say that the network will restart after the mass darkness, the network will restart and the risk of provoking the other.
Suddenly shooting alarms
According to the Red Electric, the Transport This is the “spine” of a country’s electrical system. Connect power plants with large consumers, supply points and the remaining national energy production It is necessary to transmit the energy generated by the power generation plant From one place to another in the “efficient and safe” way.
The Spanish transport network has more than 45,000 kilometers of high voltage tax circuits, more than 700 sub -plants, 600 bays and more than 200 transformers. The Red from PortugalAlthough small, there are 9,661 km rounds and about 77% of its energy produced on Tuesday Came from renewable energy According to the data of Nesonis Energy Networks (Ren), the Portuguese energy company, in solar and air.
Dublin University (UCD) Electronic and Electronic Engineering Professor Paul Guff explained it Electrical networks are usually synchronized Or interconnected, which means that “if any adverse with the Madrid generator, it will be immediately noticed in Barcelona or Lisbon.”
Trying to put computer operators to control the electric network BalanceBetween the amount of energy provided by the network and the consumed one. To achieve that balance, the operators are around 50 holders. The metric blackening can rise slightly or decreases without the risk.
The failure of the iPerian network was quick and unexpected. “Suddenly a A wave of alarms. “Says the file.
The act of a blackening, brittle balance
After the blackout, The challenge to start the network resumes. The Department of European Energy Industry, representing a European Energy Department, is to explain the so -called “black start”, which uses a “black start” of the network in which the network uses the unnecessary generation property that is not re -electricity.
In the case of the Iberian blackout, the association’s spokesman continued, which occurred in form Hydrian energyBut this can be done by diesel or gas. From these alternative sources, electricity is injected into the network and is used to restore essential services such as hospitals or safety centers.
From there, the energy continues that the energy is “slowly increases” and “is carefully balanced with the additional demand introduced in the system.” “If the balance is not almost perfect, it will cause another blackout”He says more.
Stock of renewable
In 2024, Red Electrika announced 56% The energy from Spain came from renewable energy. The network operator confirmed that on April 16 this year reached 100% of the renewable energy delivery. On Tuesday, Ren’s data shows that 77% of the energy generated in Portugal came from renewable energy.
Ren states that the introduction of solar and air for the renewable energy network, along with new consumption methods and large consumers, is “complex” to balance the network system.
ENTSO-E was warned at the beginning of the month Solar energy can cause excessive When good weather begins to come. To alleviate that, the European Electric Transport Network Managers Network says Transmission Systems Operators will create special equipment Manage the electricityBy excessive flexibility with resources and communication through the boundaries.

The file says, however The renewable sheet is “appropriate”It warns that electric networks have failed a long time before adding this new type of energy. “Rushing is a mistake. But it is wrong to accept excessive defensiveness by how they are courageous to stain (more) renewable energies,” he said. “That network had the most renewable penetration, that may be appropriate,” the coffee said.
What will happen then?
Jewel said, When the electricity is returnedYou need to do a safety check to ensure that nothing is damaged or a new blackout can occur.
Red Electricra and Ren have asked the ‘Euronevs Next’ that these security tests have been carried out but have not received an immediate response. According to the urekrich, The network will return to normal power ratesAnd the late time depends on the intensity and extent of blackness.

A commission official said that they did not resemble the ‘Euronevs’ to investigate the investigation. An element of state transport networks (GRT) will run it This is not related to the incident, and members of Spain, Portugal and France will be in a group to contribute to their experience. The group will be up to six months To present a research report on blackout, it will explain the causes of the incident and a series of recommendations.
The Judge of the Spanish National Court said that Louis Kalama Opening preliminary inquiries In whether there is darkness It may be a cyber attackDespite the abundance of various government officials, it is not so.
