| In Lofoten and Vesterålen 30,000 people were without electricity Tuesday, due to a fault on the main supply line to the area. It is hoped that the fault will have been repaired by the end of the day. The reserve feed also developed a fault, and with the cold weather, there was concern that people relying on just electricty for heating would suffer. Social services were therefore put on alert in case asistance was needed. Local hospitals are equipped with emergency generators, but municipal offices and shops were affected by the power outage. |
