A Danish Baltic Sea island experienced a short-lived power blackout on Monday as a regional grid mistake created the transformer feeding electrical power from Sweden to close down, Energinet as well as E.ON stated.
Danish transmission system driver Energinet stated the power outage had actually not been triggered by damages to the subsea cable television feeding the electrical power from the transformer terminal, as well as power had actually gone back to all customers on Bornholm
“The fault which caused a power outage on Bornholm on Monday at (0549 GMT) was not directly related to the submarine cable between Bornholm and Sweden, but was due to a fault locally on Bornholm,” it stated in a declaration.
A spokesperson at Germany’s E.ON, which runs the cable television as well as the change terminal in southerly Sweden, stated supply from the terminal was back up. “We have powered up the cable again and now the Danes are handling the issue that is on Bornholm,” he stated.
The island lies near to where the Nord Stream 1 as well as Nord Stream 2 gas pipelines that connected Russia as well as Germany fractured 2 weeks back in an act of presumed sabotage.
The power line connecting Bornholm as well as Sweden has actually been harmed numerous times in the past, most lately previously this year. An examination revealed it had actually most likely been harmed by a ship’s support.
