Massive Power Outage Hits Prague

CENTIEL, Continuous Power Availability Stand: R41
Massive Power Outage Hits Prague

According to the information reported by the local media, Prague was without power for almost an hour on June 2nd, 2022. The outage was a result of a failure at the Chodov power central distribution centre, where a similar outage occurred in 2017.

The outage affected central Prague along with the city’s 5th, 10th, and 4th districts. The city’s C line metro line was also disrupted, with reports of trams stopping in the middle of intersections.

Prague’s fire departments commented that it responded to numerous reports of fire after smoke was seen coming from buildings. However, in all cases, the smoke was the result of diesel generators being turned on to provide backup power in those buildings. The media reported an estimated 800,000 people were without power for up to an hour during the outage.

Centiel is pleased to announce that during the major outage, Centiel’s true modular UPS, CumulusPower protected the critical loads at the Czech colocation datacentre TTC TELEPORT.

Approximately 60% of all Czech internet traffic originates in TTC TELEPORT datacentres which are some of the most modern facilities of this type in Europe. Companies from all over the world host their data with TTC TELEPORT, which offers a wholly independent datacentre service based on 20 years’ experience.

TTC TELEPORT’s electrical power substation: Module 2, is protected by 6 x CumulusPower 300kW frames populated with 12 x 60kW Intelligent UPS Modules (IM) and 1 x CumulusPower 300kW frame populated with 3 x 50kW IM. These units support the IT and control and monitoring elements of the datacentre.

Electrical power substation: Module 6, is protected by 3 x CumulusPower 300kW frames populated with 15 x 60kW IM have been installed alongside 1 x CumulusPower 300kW frame populated with 3 x 50kW IM. CENTIEL, with its local partner, also provides full service and warranty support for the UPS solutions installed. Four 1,600kVA FG Wilson by Caterpillar (NI) Ltd. motor generators back up the high demands for power to the entire facility.

Whilst the media reported an estimated 800,000 people were without power for up to an hour during the outage, TTC TELEPORT reported no interruptions to power and zero downtime.
