De stroomvoorziening in de Betuwe is hersteld. Rond 7.15 uur was een stroomonderbreking in de Betuwe als gevolg van het uitvallen van twee hoogspanningsstations, met een uitval van 130 Megawatt aan vermogen. Medewerkers van TenneT hebben in Tiel de situatie onderzocht  en de stroomvoorziening hersteld.  Het hoogspanningsnet is zo opgebouwd dat bij calamiteiten snel kan worden overgeschakeld op andere onderdelen en installaties. In het hoogspanningsstation Tiel is om 8.57 de stroomvoorziening hersteld en is ook station Zaltbommel weer in gebruik genomen.

Door nog onbekende oorzaak is er rond 7.15 uur een stroomonderbreking ontstaan in de Betuwe. Hierdoor zitten onder meer Tiel en Zaltbommel momenteel zonder elektriciteit. Medewerkers van TenneT zijn ter plaatse om de oorzaak te onderzoeken. Meer informatie volgt.

Sunday October 9 2011 at 02.40 PM the BritNed cable is in use again.

Since sunday October 9 2011 at 12:46 PM the BritNed cable is non-operating. The cause is currently unknown.

BritNed partially resolved the technical fault that occurred at 06:00 CEST on 5th of September 2011 which resulted in a curtailment to 0 MW. BritNed returned to monopole availability (500MW capability) as of 08:00 CEST on the 6th of September 2011.

Vannacht om 02.42 uur is de 110 kV-verbinding tussen Vollenhoven-Luttelgeest uitgevallen (1 megawatt) Om 13.15 uur is de storing verholpen.

De NorNed-kabel is zondag weer succesvol in bedrijf genomen na een voorspoedig herstel.

Afgelopen vrijdag waren de reparatiewerkzaamheden afgerond en is de kabel weer teruggelegd. Aansluitend is een aantal testen uitgevoerd en is de kabel weer beschikbaar gesteld voor de markt.

Op maandag 18 april ontstond om 17:45 uur een storing aan de NorNed kabel. Het ging om een kabelfout op zee, ongeveer 300 meter uit de Nederlandse kust. Op die plek is een stukje van de kabel vervangen. Er wordt komende periode nog nader onderzoek gedaan naar de exacte oorzaak van de storing.

Over the weekend BritNed experienced technical problems at the converter station in Grain (UK). BritNed investigated the problem and is currently undertaking the appropriate measures to make sure the BritNed cable will be back in operation as soon as possible.

Op dinsdag 3 mei 2011 is er om 6.14 uur een korte onderbreking ontstaan in de omgeving van Waarderpolder (regio Haarlem). Hierdoor is ongeveer 20 megawatt aan belasting weggevallen in de regio. Om 6.23 had TenneT de energievoorziening richting de regio weer hersteld. De oorzaak is op dit moment nog niet bekend.

An interruption in the electricity supply occurred on the afternoon of Thursday 21 April near Heerenveen. The region experienced an outage of 27 MW from 3:13 to 3:58 p.m. The problem turned out to be caused by a short circuit due to birds nesting in a high voltage pylon. Upon notification of the incident, TenneT personnel immediately went to the Schans substation in Heerenveen to restore the power supply. The bird nest was removed from the high voltage power line between Heerenveen and Rouwerd (near the A32 motorway) and the line was put back into operation. In springtime TenneT keeps a close watch on birds nesting in high voltage pylons, conducting more frequent inspections of the substations and overhead power lines. Last Sunday, a stork’s nest caused a short circuit near Zwolle.

At 15.13 a power failure occurred at the 110kV station in Heerenveen.

Om 20:52 uur is is station Kubbetocht en vervolgens de klantaansluiting weer onder spanning gebracht.

Op woensdag 20 april trad om 15.33 uur een storing op in het 150 kV station Kubbetocht, tussen Lelystad en Harderwijk. Door deze storing werd 1 aansluiting (een windmolenpark) getroffen en viel 8 MW aanvermogen weg. Reden van deze storing was een falende spanningstransformator. Er heeft geen stroomonderbreking plaatsgevonden voor huishoudens.

Repairs on the NorNed cable are proceeding according to plan. The welding of the new cable’s first joint to the original cable was completed this past weekend. Work has now started on the welding of the second joint. If weather conditions remain favorable, the work can be completed by the end of the week. The cable will then be laid on the seabed and buried. During the weekend, the cable will be tested. The results of these test and a definite date on when the cable can be taken back into operation will be published immediately after these tests.

The repairs for the NorNed cable hon sea have started. The vessel for this operation has started with the removal of the defective section of the cable. At this moment, the crew is welding the first joint.
The welding work involves attaching the replacement cable to the original cable. The next step is to weld the other end of the cable, whereupon the repaired section will be re installed beneath the sea floor. Following tests to determine if the repairs have been successful, the cable is put back into operation and buried to prevent any further damage. Subject to favourable weather conditions and other factors, TenneT expects that the cable can be put back into operation earlier than the previously announced ten-week period.

Preparations for repair of the NorNed cable between Norway and the Netherlands are currently well underway. The problem was caused by a cable failure approx. 300 metres off the Dutch coast. A new cable section will replace the portion of the cable affected by the failure, and is now ready to be transported from Eemshaven harbour in the north of the Netherlands. All the specialised vessels, equipment and staff required for the repair work are also ready for deployment.

The repair works at sea are expected to start by the end of next week. After the old cable has been excavated, the defective cable section will be removed and the new cable installed. This highly specialised procedure is known as ‘jointing’ and will take approximately one week per joint. Successful installation of the new cable will be followed by a test phase. The cable will be put back into operation once all the tests have been completed.

Subject to favourable weather conditions and other factors, TenneT expects that the cable can be put back into operation by the second half of June, i.e. earlier than the previously announced ten-week period. The cause of the cable failure is as yet unknown and will be investigated after the repairs have been completed. The initial failure occurred on Monday 18 April 2011.
 

Today, at 17.45 hours, a power failure occured at the NorNed cable between the Netherlands and Norway. The cause for the disturbance is unknown at this moment.

The failure in the Kop van Overijssel was caused by a stork. The stork build a nest above a transformer and caused short-circuit. The remains of the nest have been removed, which ended the failure.

Om 12:28 uur is een stroomonderbreking opgetreden in het 110 kV Netwerk van TenneT in de kop van Overijssel. Hierdoor werden zo`n 50.000 a 60.000 huishoudens getroffen. Na 27 minuten was de storing verholpen. De oorxaak van de storing is nog onbekend.

The power failure which occurred at 7:43 a.m. on Tuesday 15 March at Schenkenschans substation was caused by a short circuit on the 110 kV line between Herbayum and Schenkenschans. As a result of the short circuit, two transformers at the Schenkenschans substation were switched off and the supply of electricity to part of Leeuwarden was interrupted. An investigation by TenneT revealed that the short circuit occurred at a distance of 9.7 km from the Herbayum substation due to causes as yet unknown. Because the short circuit did not result in any damage, the line was taken back into operation safely at 10:30 a.m.

The transformers at Schenkenschans substation were switched on again at 10:30 a.m. and the supply of electricity was restored. The power supply to all households in Leeuwarden was restored shortly afterwards. TenneT will conduct a further investigation into the cause of the failure.

An interruption in the supply of electricity occurred at 7:43 a.m. this morning as a result of the failure of two transformers in the 110 kV substation at Schenkenschans near Leeuwarden. The region experienced an outage of 12 MW in total. The cause of the problem is as yet unknown. TenneT is working to restore the power supply as quickly as possible.

The power failure in Alblasserdam is solved.

The cause of the failure is as yet unknown.


 

This morning at 11.44 am, a power failure occurred in the 150 kV line Buggenum-Nederweert in the Weert region. The cause of the failure is as yet unknown.
