The 2025 Iberian Blackout was a historic "total zero" event that simultaneously disconnected the power grids of Portugal and Spain from the rest of Europe. It was triggered by a technical failure in the high-voltage interconnector with France, which caused the Iberian Peninsula to become an "electrical island" unable to balance its own load.Because the grid was running on a very high percentage of renewable energy at the time—which lacks the "inertia" of traditional power plants—the system couldn't absorb the shock, leading to a cascading collapse in under 90 seconds. For nearly ten hours, 47 million people faced a total halt of metro lines, grounded flights, and failed telecommunications, marking the most significant grid failure in Europe for over two decades.Be prepared - https://www.skool.com/gmp-vips-1236/off-grid-preparedness-equipment-research-recommendationsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-good-morning-portugal-podcast-with-carl-munson--2903992/support.Get help moving to and living in Portugal
