An EU spokesperson stated that the European Union will "examine the lessons learned" from the recent blackout in Spain and Portugal to help prevent similar incidents elsewhere in Europe.

During the daily press conference, Paula Pinho, the European Commission’s chief spokesperson, described the outage as being of “unprecedented scale” and emphasised that the EU will “clearly draw the necessary conclusions, share them, and take appropriate action if required.”

“We are carefully analysing the causes, assessing how prepared we were, and identifying the key lessons from this event. These efforts will certainly engage all relevant parties over the coming days and weeks,” Pinho added.
