Power outages at a glance

Forschung und Wissen nimmt die Zahl der Stromausfälle landesweit zu. Rund ein Drittel der Haushalte war in den letzten Jahren davon betroffen. Während die Versorgungsstabilität in Deutschland als eine der stabilsten weltweit gilt, zeigt sich ein ansteigender Trend: Verbraucher waren 2023 nur zu 99,997 % mit Strom versorgt, mit einer durchschnittlichen Unterbrechungsdauer von 13,7 Minuten – ein Anstieg um 17 % im Vergleich zum Vorjahr.

One reason for this is the numerous construction sites in the country where intensive work is being carried out on roads and broadband networks. Extreme weather conditions, such as hurricanes and deep snow, have also contributed to more disruptions. Planned shutdowns result in an average of five minutes of power outage. An increase in power outages could therefore be due to energy transition projects in which renewable energies are becoming increasingly important.
