Due to an unknown cause, a large part of Assen, Witten and Bovensmilde are without power. The outage started just after half past twelve last night.
According to grid operator Enexis, this is a ‘major power outage’: 488 postal codes are without power. Part of the fault was resolved around an hour.
The hope at that time was that power would be restored to everyone around the provincial capital by 2:45 am.
