Power network maintenance in Wolmirsleben: Short failures by the end of July!

Wolmirsleben, Deutschland - In Wolmirsleben, there is currently a strong work on the power grid. The exciting maintenance work carried out by AVACON AG has been underway since June 4, 2025 and are expected to continue until July 31, 2025. During this period, there may be short interruptions. These measures are necessary to secure the future power supply for households and to ensure their stability. According to [news.de] (https://www.news.de/amp/lokales/856472738/strom loss Wolmirsleben-aktuell-in-39435-Af-stoung-hute-am-18-06-2025/1/), households in Wolmirsleben are only a few minutes a year without electricity-a really good value! Interestingly, the maintenance area is limited to about 1 kilometer around the location at the shaft lake in Wolmirsleben. And even if there are any disturbances, affected citizens should first check whether the problem only exists in their own apartment. In the event of larger failures, it is advisable to create a fault report on the AVACON AG website to inform other affected people.

The heat transition and the European energy trade also bring challenges for the network operators. On the website of the Federal Network Agency it is emphasized how important it is that electricity and gas networks can always reliably fulfill their transport tasks. The forecast energy requirement requires sufficient generation capacities and resilient regulatory mechanisms to ensure the stability of the networks even with unforeseen fluctuations.

It is also important that the networks are well secured against interventions of third parties. In times of more and more frequent extreme weather conditions, such as heavy rainfall or storms, there can be easily disturbances in the German power grid. According to the Stromausfall.org, such events are often reported by users who then contribute to creating statistics. As a result, the causes can be better understood and the infrastructure can be adjusted accordingly.
