Anyone know if there's an equivalent to grid.iamkate.com/ for USA/ North Virginia? I'm wondering if the #AWS #useast1 #dns #outage and recovery had a visible effect on the power consumption

Insight: Rogue communication devices found in #Chinese #solar power inverters
Using the rogue communication devices to skirt firewalls and switch off inverters remotely, or change their settings, could destabilise #powergrids, damage #energy infrastructure, and trigger widespread #blackouts, experts said. "That effectively means there is a built-in way to physically destroy the grid," one of the people said.

When folks in Spain and Portugal have had time to recover, charge their phones, and kissed their refrigerators, I would very much appreciate reading about their experience the last 24 hours and what preparation measures (personal and communal) they would put in place in the future/ recommend the rest of is do. #PowerGrids #spain #portugal

In positive news, Greenlink the 500 MW HVDC interconnect between Ireland and Wales went online less than a week ago on 29 January 2025.

For reference, Ireland have two other interconnects to the UK, which each are also 500 MW.

Right now Ireland is importing 361 MW via Greenlink smartgriddashboard.com/#all/in .

Hopefully next year the 700 MW Celtic Interconnector between Ireland and France should be operational increasing capacity even more.

How Future #Hurricanes Could Stress #PowerGrids of #US #Cities
A new analysis shows increasing frequency and intensity of hurricanes could cause more devastating interruptions to the #powergrid. The risk of #hurricane-induced #poweroutages could become 50% higher in some areas of the #UnitedStates including #PuertoRico because of climate change in the coming decades, according to a new analysis.
