Power outage in Kritzmow: Technicians work around the clock!
In Kritzmow, a small town in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, an unexpected power outage caused a stir. According to information from news.de The technicians at E.DIS Netz GmbH had their hands full on June 14, 2025. There were disruptions that required immediate response. Fortunately, the technicians reported in the evening that the work on the power grid had been successfully completed. Where problems occurred on Weitenmoor in Klein Stove (zip code 18198), the problem was resolved on June 13th at 3:32 p.m.
For the affected citizens, the message was still: keep calm! If you are faced with a power outage, the first thing you should do is check the fuses in the fuse box. It is recommended not to contact the rescue control centers straight away, but rather to contact the energy supplier directly. E.DIS Netz GmbH offers a troubleshooting hotline that is available for reports.
Power outages in Germany
The incident in Kritzmow is not alone. Power outages have increased sharply in Germany. According to a report by forschung-und-wissen.de Around a third of households are affected by the risk of a power outage. The causes are diverse and range from technical problems to overloads to extreme weather conditions.
The share of renewable energy now reaches an impressive 65% of public net electricity generation. But experts like E.ON warn that the rapid expansion of renewable energies could overload the power grids. Despite these challenges, the German electricity grid is considered one of the most stable in the world, with a supply rate of 99.997% in 2023.
Practical tips for the population
It is important for every household to be prepared for power outages. On the website of power outage.org Citizens can view current power outages in their area and use highlights such as the option to report an outage themselves. In the event of a power outage, electrical devices should always be switched off to avoid damage caused by overvoltage.
Having a flashlight or cell phone available as a light source can also be helpful. It is also advisable to create an emergency plan and back up important data regularly. Refrigerators and freezers should be kept closed to preserve the cold, and candles should be avoided for fire safety reasons.
While technicians addressed the issues in Kritzmow, the incident remains an important example of the energy challenges that impact many homes and businesses alike.
