The Non-Confidential Report (182 pages) into the Iberian blackout

Earlier today we wrote about the ‘News Release on the blackout on the Iberian Peninsula (on 28th April 2025) suggests overvoltage was the cause’.

At that time I could not find the full report – but have since been pointed to this 182-page ‘Non-confidential version of the report of the committee for the analysis of the circumstances surrounding the electricity crisis of April 28, 2025’ here:

2025-06-17-FullReport-182Pages-IberianBlackout

 

Alas, for luddites like me (who can’t speak Spanish) it’s pretty incomprehensible – so if someone can point to a ‘translated to English version’ in the comments, some readers would say thank-you!

 

PS1 … the report in (machine-translated) English

One of the other people on LinkedIn I am connected with, Lion Hirth, has helpfully attached a machine-translated English version of the report to his update this evening here.
