Unexpected power plant failures hit Britain's electricity system hours before Spain and Portugal were plunged into widespread blackouts, it was revealed today.
Control room staff at the National Energy System Operator (Neso) noticed unusual activity on two occasions on Sunday, in the early morning and the evening.
But Neso said there is no suggestion at this stage that the outages were linked to each other or the system failure yesterday in Spain, Portugal and southern France.
