The grid operator blamed extreme temperature variations ….but has since gone silent while the little men in suits craft a politically acceptable cause. Anybody want to bet this was all global warming. Or perhaps that Spanish visit to China brought back some kind of computer virus which can be transmitted by breathing..haha.
Or perhaps the grid was just too reliant on wind power somewhere in the system. We know wind power generation in Germany has dipped significantly recently…..largely because, who would have guessed it, the absence of wind.
Sounds pretty horrible….they were eating by candlelight in the players’ restaurant at the Madrid Open.
Bessent’s calls for reliable power timed rather well.
