Clavijo says that the zero energy consumption demonstrates the "obsolescence" of the equipment and is confident that it can be renewed.

Canary Islands President Fernando Clavijo stated that a recent total power outage affecting Lanzarote and La Graciosa demonstrates the obsolescence of the region's electrical equipment. The blackout impacted approximately 73,600 customers after occurring during the early hours of the morning.

Clavijo expressed confidence that the outdated electrical infrastructure can now be successfully renewed following the incident. The regional leader pointed to the failure as clear evidence of systemic infrastructural aging that requires immediate modernization to prevent future disruptions.
