Blackouts

Electricity Blackouts Around the World
Large-scale electricity blackouts in major western cities are widely reported in the media. Such blackouts have a huge impact on individuals and businesses. Many more, smaller scale blackouts happen around the world, but are not so widely reported, despite the fact that they can still have a negative impact on those concerned. Some manufacturing installations lose large amounts of money when the production line stops, and spend even more getting it up and running again.

This wiki tracks blackouts, the effect on individuals and businesses and what can be done to minimise the negative effects.
