Large areas of the Netherlands have been left without electricity. The north of the country has been mainly affected, with the Dutch electricity network operator saying the outage has been caused by a power grid overload.
The capital Amsterdam has been affected, along with the area around Schiphol Airport. Twitter has reported that some hospitals in Amsterdam have been left without power, while the tram and metro networks are also not running in the capital. The Dutch electricity network operator TenneT says on its website that the outage has been caused by the power grid becoming overloaded. A spokeswoman for the airport said it did suffer a temporary outage, but is now running on backup power, the ANP news agency reports.
