One resident recalls only three power outages in 2026: one nationwide blackout, one due to a fire in the building, and one for a couple of hours in spring. Previous years had similar frequency.

Some joke that similar large-scale outages happened before too — in 2025 and even 1986 — hinting at climate change as a possible reason for more frequent disruptions.
Another resident complains about frequent outages over the past 2 years — power, water, and gas cut multiple times, including a 4-day water outage last summer. They note that breakdowns happen regularly in their area.
