Bad weather required the significant mobilisation of EDP Distribuição staff in Alto Minho

The region of Alto Minho was, this morning, again hit by rain and strong winds that once again caused damage to the electricity distribution grid, in particular over 60 collapsed posts and fallen lines.

Teams from neighbouring regions were mobilized to ensure the quickest possible re-establishment of electricity in that region, which happened progressively today. We connected emergency generators in the most difficult and time-consuming cases.

According to meteorological information provided by IPMA weather agency, EDP Distribuição maintains its alert status for the operational teams in the field, in articulation with the local civil protection structures.
