EMP - Blackout in Egypt as country suddenly loses 50% of its electric power
http://www.middleeastmonitor.com/news/africa/13940-blackout-in-egypt-as-country-suddenly-loses-50-of-its-electric-power
Egyptians suffered massive power outages on Thursday. The six hour outage, which affected most cities, lead to a halt in hospital services, subway lines and TV transmission, despite the government’s assertion that the power outage problem would be solved by the end of this year.
Thursday’s outages amounted to 50 percent of the country’s power generation, the Associated Press said.
According to AP, “the mass outage on Thursday was far more severe and wide-ranging than any of the previous cuts.”
The months long power outage crisis is a result of the government’s inability to import enough fuel to run the country’s power plants, the outdated and poorly maintained equipment, alongside accumulating debts owed to foreign oil companies.
The minister of electricity Mohamed Shaker blamed a “technical error” for the loss of 9000 megawatts and the power outage in most governorates.

Egypt’s power outages continue to intensify

A huge power outage caused black-outs across Cairo on Thursday causing major disruption across the city of some 20 million people at the height of the morning rush hour.
Services were completely suspended on one of the city’s three metro lines and heavily disrupted on a second, the state MENA news agency reported. The electricity outage brought subway services in Cairo to a complete halt, inconveniencing the roughly 3.5 million Egyptians who use it every day.
Water supplies to households and businesses were also disrupted, while the power outage also affected numerous state institutions including state television channels and radio stations which could not air without electricity to run their facilities.
Energy ministry spokesman Mohamed al-Yamani said that “power is gradually being restored” after a fault cut supply to “some Cairo neighbourhoods”.
But two hours later, the whole of the city centre and several outlying districts were still without electricity, as temperatures rose towards their midday high, which can often top 40 degrees Celsius in summer.
Outside of Cairo, electricity cuts spread across five southern governorates – Minya, Asyout, Beni Sueif, Fayoum and Wadi Algedid – putting the residents into a complete standstill from 6.00 am local time, reported Almasry Alyoum.
Alaa Abdel Aziz, director of Egypt Electric, one of the companies providing the southern governorates with their electric supply, told the Egyptian daily that while the reason behind the power cuts was not clear, the company was doing its best to restore power throughout the country as soon as possible.
But reports from the ground revealed that many of Egypt’s governorates remained in partial darkness throughout the whole day.

…………..What can the Earth expect? In 2003 when the charged tail of Planet X wafted past the Earth, the Earth had dramatic blackouts. Both blackouts, caused by a drop in electrical activity, and surge can result. Surge will trigger a shutdown, to protect sensitive electrical equipment. Damaged electrical equipment can be anticipated, blown transformers and fried circuit boards. Certainly satellites are vulnerable, and the satellite failure rate will exceed mankind’s ability to send up replacements. Air travel will become increasingly risky, and mankind’s equipment that relies on electronic or magnetic guidance will increasingly malfunction. All this will increase as the hour of the Pole Shift approaches.
