Diot Siaci responds to recent blackout in Spain/Portugal
On 28 April 2025, a significant blackout affected large areas of Spain, Portugal, and some regions in France. Inevitably, the 10-hour outage, triggered widespread disruption that impacted transportation, communication, healthcare, and other everyday services.
It is critical that business familiarise themselves with their exposure to such events. Business leaders should identify the company’s critical equipment and functions and how a loss of gas and/or electricity supplies would affect their organisation.
This can have a various consequence, particularly effecting the following areas:
• Personal safety
• Direct damage to equipment
• Production losses
• Loss of goods
• Environmental damage
• Site security
To help clients prepare and reduce the fallout from blackouts, and similar catastrophic events, Diot Siaci has created a whitepaper to help educate and prepare their partners.
