BRITAIN-TRANSPORT-ELECTRICTY-OUTAGE

An electricity pylon transporting electricity for the National Grid is seen in east London on August 16, 2019. - National Grid, which runs Britain's power network, has said it was confident of "no malicious intent" behind a major outage that hit nearly one million people and caused travel chaos a week ago. The company has blamed the blackouts, that left more than 900,000 customers without power for several hours and transport systems reeling, on the loss of two generators in quick succession. It has vowed to "learn any lessons" from what it described as an "unexpected and unusual event", which saw evening commuters stranded on trains, traffic lights failing and homes plunged into darkness.
