Czech Power Outage: Parts of Czech power grid suffer outage, operator said Parts of the Czech national power grid were affected by an outage on Friday, news agency Reuters reported, citing grid operator CEPS. "Part of the transmission system is without voltage; the event also affected a larger part of the transmission system substations," it said, adding that the causes were under investigation.

CEPS said it could confirm that one high-voltage power line had suffered an outage, which separated northern and eastern parts of the country from the grid. Czech Television reported that the outage affected several northern and eastern regions as well as parts of the capital.

Power was restored quickly in some affected areas. Prague transport company DPP said underground trains in the capital briefly stopped, but operations were soon restored. Tram
traffic also stopped on the right bank of the capital.

The Czech Republic is facing an extraordinary situation due to a major power outage and everyone is working to restore electricity supplies, Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala said on Friday on social media platform X.

The Czech police has said earlier there was no evidence of cyber or terrorist attack so far.
