So what caused the blackout?

Spain rules out cyber-attack as cause of power outage as travel chaos continues - live updates
Portugal's prime minister also says there is no indication of a cyber-attack, as officials investigate what caused the power outages.

I never insinuated it was from a cyber attack. Our grid is feeble enough as is. Green New Deal would have ruined it.Power back on.

I never said you insinuated it was a cyber attack. Did you actually read the three articles or just the headline of the first one?
The fact is, the grid was back up within 24 hours. That's what all three of them actually said.
Green New Deal would have supplemented the existing U.S. Grid (not replaced it), but keep on with your crazy soothsaying about alternative universes that can never be proven or disproven if it makes you happy.

So we were 3 months from a 1 day power outage if we had elected Kamala..hahahahahbahahh
Yeah, that's exactly the message I was sending.
Wow!
It was never going to supplement anything but politicians pockets. But let that Biden wash continue in your brain.

We all know the message you were sending. The libs are everything wrong in the world and only Trump can save us. Blah blah blah.Yeah, that's exactly the message I was sending.
I'd rather have 1 day no power than a economic shutdown brought on intentionally by our own president, or destruction of our standing in the world while ignoring constitutional rights of people in the country.
You all obviously don't have a clue what I was saying, so you just make sh!t up, per usual.
I was simply stating the GND was going to send our grid into overload and we moved forward by putting a stop to that nonsense.
And that's not me talking, that's everyone I know who has anything to do with producing electricity. You know, actual experts.
But because I posted it the circle jerk goes wild blah blah blah.
Play that victim hood card Rob . Reminds me of a Rodney Dangerfield rant, without the humor.
Ah, more ignorance. Fap on pivot man.
Have you ever heard of Texas?
Never, but I bet @Donnyboy can educate you.
2021 Texas Power Grid Failure – a preventable disaster - DEITABASE
In 2021, Winter Storm Uri brought record-breaking low temperatures to the people of Texas, overwhelming the under-designed Texas power grid. 4.5 million homes and businesses lost power, over $16 billion in electricity costs were overcharged, and over 240 people died due to freezing temperatures...

So based on what I know.....that's a big disclaimer because they are aren't close to root cause on this......
"Unusual atmospheric and meteorological phenomena" sounds weak. That is no way shape or form an accusation of shenanigans but at this point in 2025 we have a pretty good idea about the weather and electricity and if there is was something that significant it ought to be jumping off the page. As in at 0921 hours the following happened in this precise location impacting this specific equipment causing a cascading blackout. Solar storm should have been well and precisely documented and that is the typical culprit for that widespread of an outage....those are known by us in real time.
Their grid is not nearly as robust as ours. It isn't as modern in it's protective schemes and isn't built for as harsh of environments. It takes less...a lot less....for that to happen there than here and I bet the final cause will show weakness maybe incompetence more than malice. If something that big occurred here we would know the trigger essentially instantly. I'm not saying there would be a final root cause with action items but we would know.....tornado hit 4 large subs cascading multiple lines, solar flare, sabotage......very quickly. I'm not saying Spain and Portugal don't have bad weather but it's not as extreme or diverse is ours, they don't have to make the geographical runs we do, and they have less need for security of all kinds. In short they have it easier.....they lost power for a day.....it doesn't justify as robust a grid as ours but once every rare now and again that is going to bite you.
The Green New Deal wouldn't make the grid more secure or reliable it would do the opposite. Transmission aspects were all but completely ignored. America wouldn't be in a blackout now if KH won. FERC/NERC are the checks and balances on that stuff and are still sane and mostly insulated from politics. The biggest impact would be significantly higher costs.
