EDP Distribuição's teams continue to work intensively in the field to overcome the occasional situations still encountered.

EDP Distribuição's teams continue to work intensively in the field to overcome the occasional situations still encountered.

At the moment, there are still some medium and high voltage electrical distribution network failures resulting from the Elsa depression, but it is assumed that they will be overcome in the coming hours. 75 generators and 1 mobile plant are connected to ensure power supply, while more complex repairs are carried out.

A worsening of the weather conditions is expected this afternoon, with a greater impact in the North, namely rain and strong wind gusts associated with the Fabien depression.

The Company therefore expects a significant increase in the number of incidents for these areas. Meanwhile, floods have been hindering the mobility of teams, and for safety reasons exceptional measures are being taken in riverside areas.

EDP Distribuição's operating system has been in place since Wednesday and will continue to be active to ensure that the entire population is supplied with energy.

If you come across a fallen line or pole, report it to us.
We'll correct the anomaly as soon as possible.

Do not approach, respect the safety distances.
