What is induced atmospheric vibration? Understand the possible reason for the darkening in Europe

In Iberian Peninsula, such as Spain and Portugal, dimming caused a worldwide period for worrying news of possible cybers. However, local authorities assign an attack of this size and state that the cause of the incident is a rare atmospheric phenomenon known as induced atmospheric vibration.

Although most of the energy has already been restored in these countries, the exact reasons are still unknown, but are under research. This phenomenon is not confirmed as a real cause, many theories and possible reasons are still circulating on the internet.

Has the dimming in Europe caused by the climate phenomenon?

The first evidence that the causes of the blackout would be a stimulated atmospheric vibration phenomenon began when Portugal’s main energy operators described the ren event. According to the company, “Due to excessive temperature changes in Spain, there were abnormal emissions on very high voltage lines (400 kV)”.

Hours later, Ren sent an explanation to CNN Portugal and rejected the information that this phenomenon was responsible for darkening in the European region. The company also rejected the likelihood of the energy supply to return to a week.

To date, European authorities have not reached an agreement on the origin of this darkening. Although the atmospheric phenomenon is a real possibility, the research has been continuing, but it has not been certain so far.

What is induced atmospheric vibration?

The induced atmospheric vibration is a rare phenomenon that occurs when there is a high pressure level on energy networks. This pressure is external and can be caused by many factors such as winds and sudden heat change. In addition, these events are likely to trigger with a large energy release such as explosions or fires.

The possible scenario containing this blackout is related to high temperatures. When a certain part of the planet is very fast with very strong heat waves, the above air layer becomes warmer, expands and becomes lighter.

The problem is that this hot air creates an imbalance with the colder and more dense atmosphere of the environment. Therefore, the world’s atmosphere needs to cope with it and produces high -pressure fluctuations. It turns out that these pressure waves are very strong and sometimes collide with energy networks and transmission lines.

The speed and disorder in temperature variation causes this abnormality in the power lines and causes vibrating. Therefore, it is possible to affect the supply network of countries.

Which country in Europe started?

Spain is one of the largest energy distributors all over Europe, and the darkening is likely to be there. The country’s prime minister Pedro Sanchez announced that Spain has been damaged by 15GW in five seconds or about 60% of national demand.

The failure would begin with a connection problem between the two energy systems where the first was saved from the incident, but the latter triggered the darkening, not the latter. The country is still investigating the causes.

The causes of the blackout are speculative

According to the special site meteorologist, according to José Miguel Viñas, it is not yet possible to nail a meteorological or geomagnetic factor as the causes of the blackout. “For example, in a wind -free heat wave, demand fires and the necessary energy cannot be obtained, in this case, it was not excessive heat and there was no geomagnetic storm. They are all very speculative.”

Therefore, it will be necessary to wait for the authorities to complete their investigations. However, Spain and Portugal restored most of the power supply in their own countries, and there is no evidence that a regional dimming event could be again.
