The massive blackout occurred throughout Spain and other countries.
First of all, the authorities have coordinated, together with competent agencies, for the restoration of the supply in a safe and controlled manner. In addition, the recovery process requires bringing voltage to the generating sets, allowing their start-up and the progressive propagation of power through the grid.

However, the priority is to extend this recovery in a sustained manner to the rest of the affected territory.
Likewise, REE indicates that it continues to maintain a constant flow of communication with network operators and specialized technicians to ensure that each phase of the process is carried out in accordance with established technical safety procedures.
