In Spain, electricity has already been restored. Amazing experience! Luckily, I will only have to throw away some food. But there are stories of all kinds. It has been 12 hours where we have gone back to the middle ages.
@andros@twtxt.andros.dev We don’t know the cause, yet, do we? 🤔
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yes! There is a cause: The renewable energies.
In Spain there is a lot of dependence on renewable energies and this is a problem for maintaining the voltage in the network. Thus, a 60% loss was lost for 5 seconds. In cascade, the circuit breakers were automatically switched off.
The B-side of renewable energies. They produce electricity but not dynamic energy.
