北愛爾蘭遭遇風暴Éowyn,數十萬戶斷電

NIE Networks報告指出,由於風暴Éowyn的影響,北愛爾蘭的電力網絡遭受了嚴重損壞,截至2025年1月24日星期五,約有283,000名客戶斷電。這場風暴帶來了颶風級別的風力,並發布了紅色天氣警報,導致了大範圍的破壞,包括倒下的樹木和受損的電力線路。恢復工作正在進行中,但NIE警告說,完全恢復電力可能需要相當長的時間,因為工作人員只有在安全的情況下才能開始工作。

NIE Networks的網絡運營經理Alex Houston呼籲公眾遠離受損的電力設備,並立即報告任何事故。他強調,電力可以跨越間隙,即使損壞不立即可見,倒下的樹木也可能影響了電力線路。NIE已優先處理危險和關鍵基礎設施站點,預計某些地區的恢復工作將持續到星期二。

社區援助中心已在Craigavon、Coleraine和其他地點設立,以提供支持,包括熱飲、充電設施和斷電居民的建議。NIE還鼓勵弱勢群體在情況解決之前,尋求有電力的朋友或親戚的庇護。

這場風暴被描述為近年來最嚴重的風暴之一,持續風速達60-70英里/小時,造成了廣泛的破壞。NIE Networks已部署了額外資源,包括承包商和紅十字會,以協助恢復工作並為受影響的居民提供福利檢查。客戶被建議通過NIE的熱線或在線平台報告斷電情況。
