The report was written by a committee of experts. Fifty, I think.

      The committee studying the blackout is made up of representatives of the Ministry for Ecological Transition and the
       Demographic Challenge (MITECO), the Presidency of the Government, the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of the
       Interior. Specifically, the Department of Homeland Security, the National Intelligence Centre, the General Staff and the
       National Centre for the Protection of Critical Infrastructure are involved.

       The blackout, which occurred on 28 April 2025, affected the Iberian Peninsula, including Spain, Portugal and Andorra, and
       extended as far south as France. The power outage caused disruptions to essential services such as hospitals, airports and
       telecommunications networks. The causes of the blackout are being investigated by this committee.
