Greenland’s satellite services were affected after the blackouts in Spain

Remote areas of Greenland have lost access to basic satellite services, including the Internet and telephone communications, the island’s telecommunications group of this Arctic announced late Monday night, adding that it would investigate it. Greenland Telecommunications Company Tussass said in a statement that it has lost its connection to satellite equipment located in Spain and providing the provision of telephone, internet and broadcasting. “At the moment there is no contact with our equipment in Maspaloma in Spain, from which we are very dependent on being able to supply our customers to the satellite area,” Tussass said in a statement. The areas affected were some remote settlements. It has not yet been clear how many people were affected. Late last night began to restore electricity to parts of the Iberian peninsula after the blackout caused in most of Spain and Portugal. Source: RES
