Nah, Brexit, innit.Cyber attack?
Spain will take 'all necessary measures' to prevent another blackout, says PM - live updates
Power has now been fully restored in Spain and Portugal, as officials continue to investigate what caused the outage.
Unusual weather made the connectors vibrate themselves apart in part of the network and the following cascade brought down the rest of the grid.
Still reading The Beano thenNett zero ( cause)
Mind you Spain are a pretty hopeless lot
Doubt they could organise / engineer a booze up in a pub ??
They can’t use tape measures / rulers
If they had enough battery on the grid it probably would have managed. They're very good at providing grid stabilisation.Nett zero ( cause)

I thought the opposite was the case in that traditional big power (coal/nuclear/gas) has very large spinning masses (turbo-alternators) with very large inertia providing stability to the grid. When this is removed/minimized without the inertia the grid suffers oscillations typically in the 0.25-4hZ range that can get out of control causing large voltage fluctuations and power flows, e.g +/-10Kv on a 400Kv circuit and corresponding power fluctuations of 1-200Mw. There are many published papers on this subject and some suggested solutions within the control algorithms of inverters but unfortunately the scale of such devices seems inadequate compared with older electro-mechanical systems.
Beano too complex for youNah never use to read the Beano
You ??
Blimey Spain spent millions on new trains than found out they were to wide to go through the tunnels
Only required a a cheap tape measure
Hopeless mob
Couldn’t organise a booze up in a pub
As for the Portuguese
Yes exactly
The world leaders ? In the manufacture of flip flops
