Storm Éowyn Described As One Of The Most Severe Storms In Decades

Approximately 40,000 individuals across Scotland were left without electricity on Saturday night, following the significant disruptions caused by Storm Éowyn. The situation has been described as challenging, with some residents potentially facing several days without power, as indicated by an energy distribution director.
By 4pm on Saturday, data revealed that around 28,000 customers of Scottish Power were still experiencing outages. Later, at 7:30pm, the number of customers impacted by outages from Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN) rose to approximately 12,000.
SSEN reported that, despite the initial chaos, they had successfully restored power to about 78,000 customers. In contrast, Scottish Power managed to reconnect approximately 192,000 customers who had lost electricity due to the severe conditions of Friday’s storm.
However, Scottish Power acknowledged that repair efforts in specific regions were hindered by adverse weather conditions, including high winds, accumulated snow, ice, and debris. This complicated the restoration process, leading to frustrations among those still waiting for their power to be restored.
