The massive blackout of April 2025, which paralyzed Spain, Portugal, and parts of southern France, was not the result of a single cause, but rather a synergistic combination of multiple adverse factors. This was announced today by a group of experts tasked with investigating network malfunctions.
Their report confirmed the inability of the Iberian electricity grid to control voltage peaks, while also emphasizing that this widespread blackout was not caused by a single factor, but by a combination of multiple associated factors, which led to the worst event of its kind in Europe in over 20 years.
