The French RTE Energy System operator said on Monday that the large -scale electricity closure in Spain led to an automatic stop of the Golfash nuclear power station in southwestern France.
“In France, it had to obscure many specific but moderate consequences: the automatic stopping of many power stations in southwestern France (including the reactor at the Golfash Nuclear Energy Station),”, “, – It is said in the letter on the operator’s website.
In addition, some industrial and home consumers who also connect to the RTE network also faced power or power outage.
It should be noted that the power source power of power has spoken automatically to protect the local network, as it lasted less than 20 minutes.
According to the operator, these measures made it possible to “prevent the distribution of the accident to the rest of Europe.”
A major electricity closure occurred on April 28 around Spain at 12:30 (13:30 Moscow time). The failure also affected Portugal, France and Andorra. Because of the Blackau, the railway must be stopped. It also affected the work of public transport in cities where traffic lights did not succeed. Waiting lists formed in supermarkets, and people had to be saved from the elevators stuck. All nuclear power plants in the country were safely stopped. Blackau causes aside.
