Power outages in Probstzella: Technicians fight against darkness!
In Probstzella, Thuringia, the population has been struggling with power outages for some time. According to [news.de]. Technicians are on site to fix the problems. It remains unclear whether these difficulties are related to planned maintenance work. The last update about the disruption was on June 17, 2025 at 6:45 p.m.
Power outages are rare in Germany, but they do happen. On average, households in this country are almost always supplied with electricity, with the annual outage time being a few minutes. In Probstzella, however, several households are currently affected, which makes the situation tense.
Frequency of disruptions
As thueringer-energienetze.com reports, supply interruptions are common, but usually only affect a few households. While low-voltage disruptions are often caused by excavation work, medium-voltage disruptions are less common but often affect several districts. The probability of disruptions is lowest in the high-voltage network, as it is comprehensively monitored by the network control center and disruptions can usually be resolved in a few minutes.
A general assessment of the German electricity supply shows that the average supply interruption in Germany is only 18 minutes. For comparison: In Great Britain this number is over one hour and in Italy it is even more than three hours per year, as the Federal Network Agency shows in its report bundesnetzagentur.de.
What to do during power outages?
It is important for Probstzella residents to know what to do in the event of a power outage. First, it should be clarified whether the problem only exists in your own apartment or whether there are major problems. The emergency numbers for the police or fire brigade should only be dialed in an emergency. Malfunctions can be reported directly via the TEN Thüringer Energienetze website in order to provide quick remedial action.
The current situation in Probstzella is a clear indication that even in a well-supplied country like Germany, power supply challenges can always arise. It remains to be hoped that the technicians will find a solution as quickly as possible and that the residents will soon be able to live their everyday lives without any worries.
