Power failure: What to do?

Stand: 27.08.2024

Private provision is important. But what exactly do you need to do? Find out here.

The German electricity grid is considered to be very stable. Power outages are comparatively rare and usually only affect limited areas. Nevertheless, various events also show that critical infrastructures are vulnerable. A localized heavy rainfall or a severe storm can trigger power outages.

Power outages are usually rectified within a few hours. In emergency situations, however, it can take days for the power to be restored. This is when private provision is important. Once an emergency has occurred, it is usually too late to take precautionary measures. Think about people in your area who need your help!
