An article published last week in British newspaper The Telegraph alleges that the massive electricity outage that left the Iberian Peninsula in darkness on 28 April was triggered by a Spanish government “experiment” with renewable energies.
Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, The Telegraph’s World Economy Editor, wrote that according to “sources in Brussels”, Spanish authorities were “probing how far they could push reliance on renewables” in preparation for Spain’s phase-out of nuclear reactors.
