The internal programs of Electric Red They were inoperative or with computer problems During at least 48 hours after blackout what Spain suffered last Monday, as solvent sources close to the company of the Ibex 35. In addition, the same sources indicate that the company has not issued absolutely any internal statement, or to explain the confusion situation after the electricity fall, or to justify the technological problems.
Thus, the programs used by developers subcontracted by the company and other employees were fallen for more than a day after the recovery of the electricity.
“when the light returned, they did not work, and so they continued,” the sources explain to this newspaper, which also reveal that Red Electricity gave priority to the applications used by users.
“They hurried to fix the computer programs that interact with users, but those who are used internally have taken much longer,” they reveal.
Around 48 hours after the blackout suffered by the Peninsula, on Tuesday morning, “it was almost restored,” although “the environments recovered in previous versions and were pending update.”
Thus, the company has not only had problems when managing the problem of the blackout externally, but has suffered internal incidents related to the computer field and the programs with which it operates with their backs to the user.
The Electricity President
Despite all these problems, Beatriz CorridorPresident of Red Eléctrica and former Minister of Housing with the Socialist Government of Zapatero, denied to resign of his position. “It would be to say that the services have not worked correctly and it has not been so,” he argued, despite not having been able to maintain internal computer programs when the blackout had already passed.
«My career is Assume responsibilities that at every moment I have decided to assume. If I was aware that I have done something wrong, the first one that would raise it would be me, ”said Corredor, asked about the possibility of resigning after a massive blackout that caused historical chaos in the Iberian Peninsula.
«It would be to say that the services have not worked correctly and it has not been so. Therefore, the answer is no, ”the president of the electricity network designated by Pedro Sánchez and who has an annual salary of 546,000 euros.
«We know the cause, We have it more or less locatedwhat happens is that they are millions of data, ”said Corridor, although he adds that these reasons that caused the electrical short circuit” cannot be known until the generators data are analyzed. “
All these last statements were issued by the company’s president while internal computer programs were not yet 100% restored.
In that sense, the Spanish electrical system that manages Redeia has already been evidenced, but also its own internal mechanisms, which have not been visible to the general public, since they put “all efforts” in recovering the computer interfaces that do interact with external agents, according to the sources.
